Cowboys aren't necessarily boys. They aren't necessarily grown-ups, either. In this lively photo essay, young readers will meet girls and boys who live a unique way of life by working on their families' cattle ranches. Cowgirls and cowboys take part in many aspects of livestock operations, from calving and branding to haying and rounding up the herd. Their work is valuable because cattle are among the world's most important domesticated animals. With a colorful and informative text, illustrated with action-packed photographs, Cat Urbigkit follows cattle kids through a year of ranching on the western range.
