Cowboy Dreams - Hardcover
One of the most colorful and best-selling books by Dayal Kaur Khalsa is back in print--and in paper. In this enchanting story, an imaginative city girl yearns to be a cowboy and to have her very own horse. So she builds one on the basement banister and, using a jump rope for reins, rides all winter long, singing cowboy tunes.

From the Back Cover:
"The power of Khalsa's jewel-bright art is undiminished here as she lovingly portrays 1950s Brooklyn and the landscape evoked by the songs. The book suggests how a child in any era can be nourished by a dream."--Kirkus.
