Summary
The Day Dirk Yeller Came to Town
The day Dirk Yeller came to town, the wind curled its lip, cattle quit lowin', and tumbleweeds stopped tumblin' along. Townsfolk whispered. "He starts stampedes!" "He holds up trains!" "He's trouble!" When Dirk Yeller scours the town for something to stop his itchin' and twitchin' and jumpin' and rattlin', no one seems able to help. But Sam, who's been following Dirk all day--and who can sometimes be a little fidgety, too--knows the perfect solution . . . Energetic illustrations and lively language capture the Wild West in this perfect read aloud for book lovers of all ages.
