How I Spent My Summer Vacation by Mark Teague

Book CoverSome kids spend their summer singing songs around the campfire. Some kids spend their summer swimming at the beach. Some kids spend summer at their grandparents. But not Wallace Bleff! He tells his class about his adventures being kidnaped by cowboys, learning how to be a cattleman, and heroically saving the day during a cattle stampede.
I really like Teague's artwork in this book. He does a great job capturing subtle facial expressions on the characters. The story is told in rhyme, making a smooth reading. Great for ages 4 and up.
