Each day she puts on her favorite boots and hat and sets off on her stick pony for school with a andldquo;Yippee ki-yay!andrdquo; Alice is used to being the only cowgirl around, until Lexis from Texas arrives at school one day. Lexis seems to be a real cowgirl, with her fancy hat, jingling spurs, and lasso tricks. Alice decides thereandrsquo;s only one way to know who the best cowgirl is: a school-yard showdown at high noon! But will Alice learn thereandrsquo;s room for more than one cowgirl in town?

--Kirkus Reviews

andquot;Hoytandrsquo;s bright ink-and-watercolor illustrations gleefully capture the girlsandrsquo; enthusiasm for all things western, from their fringed cowgirl blouses to the bandannas tied jauntily around their necks.
