Brave Cowboy

The Brave Cowboy was originally published in 1959 and sold over 230,000 copies in four languages. New fans of the work are sure to emerge as well because of the irresistible story Joan offers of one boy's special day of imaginative adventure. This adorable gift book for children features Joan's black and red line drawings on cream-colored stock. The red illustrations represent the brave cowboy's imaginary world of bandits, rattlesnakes, stagecoaches, and fair maidens. Joan's inspiration for the main character came from her son when he was about three years old.
