About the Book

Tornado Slim is just your regular cowboy . . . until the day he meets the coyote. The coyote gives Slim his special hat and asks him to deliver a letter to the sheriff of Fire Gulch City. Slim has never been to Fire Gulch City, but he figures he can handle it. As Slim travels from town to town, disaster seems to follow. Pretty soon Slim learns that his new hat is NOT your average cowboy hat. Will Slim ever make it to Fire Gulch City? And what did the wily coyote put down in that letter, anyway? Watercolor illustrations add lively humor to this original tall tale.

BRYAN LANGDO lives in New Jersey. He recently illustrated Hero Dad.

Tornado Slim and the Magic Cowboy Hat Text Reviews

"An ebullient and refreshing venture Out West."

Kirkus, September Issue, 2011

*"Folks will find out-sized fun and ten-gallon laughs in both the frenetic paintings and the rollicking cowboy lingo in this action-packed tall tale."

Library Media Connection, Starred Review

"The detail-oriented watercolor illustrations add to the adventure. Appealing as a read-aloud or as independent reading, Tornado Slim will have youngsters laughing up a storm."
