'Til the Cows Come Home por Jodi Icenoggle
I love this tale about how a man cherished his beloved craft long and well. When the leather wore, he would recreate it into something new and useful and promised to wear it 'til the cows come home. Time after time he remade this piece of leather and got much use out of it. When the time came when he no longer could make something new, he cherished the time he did had and accepted that it was time for the cows to come home. We have an idea of what our life may be, but we've got to appreciate what we have.… (mais)
Such a cute book about a young cow boy whose prized possession was a smooth piece of leather that he fashioned into all sorts of things to wear. This book reminds children of old blankies, toys,and bears they once thought they'd never leave, which is always a fun writing prompt.
This book is placed in a Western setting. The cowboy in the story is given a piece of leather which he makes into chaps for himself. As time goes by, the chaps wear out and are remade into something new. The cowboy's life also changes and he experiences new and wonderful things. The beautiful illustrations fit perfectly. The story flows beautifully and the words are intriguing. There is even a glossary of some of the words and phrases to help with understanding.
