In this rollicking read-aloud Western, meet Joanna and Susanna, the ultimate cowgirls!
What if cows could be cowgirls? One day in the pasture, just chewing on cud, Joanna and Susanna imagine themselves as the fun-loving Buckamoooo Girls. The Buckamoooo Girls ride through the Wild West—roping steers, sharing a meal out in the open air, and dancing “by the light of the moooooon.”
This hilarious daydream of a picture book, created by two Westerners, shows that there are few things better than a horse ride under a big sky, and a friend to share it with.

Californian Ellen A. Kelley’s first children’s book, The Lucky Lizard, was called “hilarious” (SLJ) and “delightful” (Children’s Literature). This is her second book. She lives in Santa Barbara, California.
Grade 2–4—Two placid cows in a pasture, Susanna and Joanna, dream of being cowgirls and taming the Wild West. They hope to experience cattle drives, a rodeo, a country dance, and more. The art depicts a lot of exciting cowgirl action, and the text is written in a punchy, poetic style. "Two cows/out back,/spotted brown/spotted black./Cud-munchin'/musey moos/dream of bein'/buckaroos." Unfortunately, the book is a bit confusing. While the first illustration shows Susanna and Joanna dreaming of being human girls, the rest of the pictures show them as cows. Still, the artwork is vibrantly colored and funny, and it gives the book a strong flavor of the West.—Susan E. Murray, Glendale Public Library, AZ
