The Littlest Cowboy

5. In the fall of 2007, I again awoke from a very vivid dream. The one scene was so startling to me that I continued to question its meaning as I wrote furiously trying to capture the entire dream which, not surprisingly, disappeared before I could get it all recorded. Another scene that I hesitated to write down in words seemed to be somehow too intimate causing me to doubt its place, too, in the book I knew was evolving. Both scenes, I learned, were pivotal to the whole so they had to be included. This story seemed to write itself once I got past my initial uneasiness and, in the end, THE LITTLEST COWBOY became the first in what-I-call my "cowboy" series that includes at least three books. I still enjoy rereading the first two as I work on the third.
The story of THE LITTLEST COWBOY gives insight into a time past when children learned about survival and duty relying on a connection so grand as to guide thinking into action.
Due to its intense themes, this book is recommended for mature audiences.
