The Original Adventures of Hank the Cowdog (Hank the Cowdog Series #1)
- Book Review,
by John R. Erickson
From AudioFile
Hank the Cowdog, "Head of Ranch Security" at a spread in Texas, is most adept at getting himself into a pickle. Charming in his own way but with elevated self-esteem and low-level intelligence, Hank and his tales are hilarious: He gets tangled up with a porcupine and a skunk (among other tales), as well as almost going over to the coyotes. John R. Erickson's expressive, versatile, and energetic performance brings his own creation to life perfectly. Music and sound effects throughout complement this delightful tale, which will have listeners howling at Hank, the coyotes, and maybe the moon. M.T.F.
