About this title

Synopsis

Young Sarah, with the help of her friend Billy the Ghost, proves herself as a deputy by planning the perfect capture of two bank robbers in her Western town of Cactus Junction.

Reviews

Kindergarten-Grade 3. After the sheriff and his posse leave Cactus Junction to search for some bank robbers, lasso-toting Sarah (a little girl) and Billy (a ghost) discover they have work to do. The thieves are still in town and disguised as women. Young readers will enjoy Sarah and Billy's humorous misadventures with the crooks. Eventually, Sarah's planning and Billy's practical jokes (and invisibility) work for them; they deliver "Mabel" and "Doris" to the sheriff tied-up in a most unusual manner. The facial expressions, funny caricatures, and Old West setting enhance this fun-filled story. A great book combination includes reading aloud Diane Stanley's Saving Sweetness (Putnam, 1996) to aspiring young cowpokes and having them read Billy the Ghost and Me.?Gale W.

Gr. 2^-4. In the comic tall-tale tradition, this I Can Read Chapter Book features spunky Sarah, who foils a bank robbery and a stagecoach getaway with the help of her friend Billy the Ghost. The bandits are in drag, but Sarah sees through their disguise, ties their shoelaces together, and captures them for the sheriff with her handy lasso. The pictures exaggerate the Wild West scenarios, and beginning readers will enjoy the brief episodes of the slapstick adventure. Hazel Rochman
