Dirty Cowboy
Dirty Cowboy | Amy Timberlake
2 posts | 3 read
This ol' boy needs a bath!After he finds a tumbleweed in his chaps and the numerous bugs buzzing around him affect his hearing, the cowboy decides it's time to head to the river. Once there, he peels off all his clothes and tells his trusty old dog to guard them against strangers. He takes a refreshing bath and emerges clean as corn but so fresh-smelling that his dog doesn't recognize him! Negotiations over the return of the clothes prove fruitless. A wrestling match ensues in a tale that grows taller by the sentence, climaxing in a fabric-speckled dust devil.Amy Timberlake has inserted a Western twang into this tale of filth and friendship, and Adam Rex has found many creative means of bodily concealment in his expressive, comical paintings."

This book was funny, if a bit long. A cowboy only takes a bath once a year. He smells, is covered in dirt grime, bugs, and fungus. He takes his horse and his dog on a long journey to find the nearest river in which to bath and instructs his dog to let no one near his clothes. Once done with his bath, the dog no longer recognizes the cowboy and will not let him touch the clothes. They argue, the clothes get destroyed and the cowboy walks home

LibrarianRyan naked. If you have not guessed already, this book is BANNED. It is banned because of a naked cowboy. The reader doesn‘t see more than a bare chest and legs. “Inappropriate” body parts are always covered by rocks, animals, or other things. But that was not enough for some parents. They compared this book to a child‘s Hustler. That description does not fit at all, but it was still enough to have this book pulled from school districts far and 2y

Mehso-so

Ordered this book to add to my selection of banned books. The writing was mediocre (⭐️⭐️), but the ways the illustrator came up with to cover the cowboy's genitalia and buttocks were very creative! (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️)
