This book gets my vote as the best book for kids ever written. I recently read this aloud to a group of kids from age 4 to 10, and they all found it gripping and hilarious. Probably the biggest fan was a 60-year old grandmother joining the group. The writing is vivid and funny, with irony that comes across just as well to a 6-year old as to a 60-year old. Parts of it were hard to read because of uncontrollable laughing by both reader and audience. Great chapter book to read aloud, or for older kids to read to themselves. On a car trip, we also listened to some of the chapters as read by the author, also excellent (and including a highly original and wonderful song).Product details

The Original Adventures of Hank the Cowdog edition by John R Erickson Gerald L Holmes Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Bought this book for my son who can read, but isn't terribly interested in a lot of books. His teacher recommended this one, and he loves it. To him, it's basically a book about the shenanigans of his own dog and he LOVES IT.
I bought this audiobook to listen in the car with my six year
old son because I had always heard that the Hank the Cowdog
books were pretty funny and I could never get my ten year old
daughter interested in them. I must say that the whole family
enjoyed it very much (even my daughter who wasn't interested).
Some of the humor went over the heads of my kids, but that is
the mark of a really good children's story; it appeals to both
the adults and the children.
The story is about Hank the Cowdog who is the self-appointed
head of ranch security. There is a mystery to solve who has
been killing the chickens at the ranch? When poor Hank is
falsely accused, he runs away, feeling misunderstood and abused.
He falls in with a pack of coyotes. In the end he must make a
choice between his old friends and his new ones.
The audio book contains two songs. It has been several weeks
since we listened to it, but we all still randomly break into
rounds of "Me Just A Worthless Coyote"!
My grandmother loved Hank the Cowdog books. When we decided to do a family trip with 3 households included, I bought 3 sets of the 1st 3 Hank books. We read aloud a few times, laughed about Hank and talked about him. The younger members of the group continued to read on the way home. Enjoyable for us all!
I grew up with Hank the Cowdog, so I ordered this first book to see if my sons would be interested. My 8-year-old laughed so hard, I thought he was going to choke. I'd forgotten just how great this series is; so enjoyable for kids AND adults!
I bought this book for my granddaughter, who was visiting us for a short time. We read from it every day she was here, and she loved it. She took it home so her mother could finish reading it with her ... and she has requested that I purchase other books about Hank the Cowdog. I am certain the fact that her dog is named Hank has something to do with her love of the book, but I think she would like it without having her own Hank at home.
The Hank the Cowdog series of books are about Life on the Ranch as seen through the eyes of Hank the Cowdog. This has GOT to be how dogs see things in their world! And what a HILARIOUS world it must be.
The Hank the Cowdog series of books were my kid's very favorites growing up.These books made my kids want to learn to read. They even asked for Hank the Cowdog books for Christmas! (Shocking, right?)
All the kids liked them so much so that now that THEY are having kids of their own, they're all fighting over who gets to "inherit" the Hank the Cowdog books for their own kids. Well, Grandma's got to have something to read to the grand kids, when they visit so THIS Grandma is KEEPING her Cowdog Books.
However, I'm still a good Grandma so I buy them their own set of Hank the Cowdog books as gifts and now the CD sets too. Kids now days spend a lot of time in the car so I get the CD's for them to listen to. The grand kids like them so much they love hearing them even though they've already read them THREE times!
Hank has style and character and presence. He's old west, cattle and ranching. He's as comfy as an old shoe. He's all the western values and virtues you'd want from Marshal Dillon, but he's fun and just a little bit clueless. The jokes are a little corny, but the adventures are good for honest laughs and excitement. Maybe everything old is new again, because this is so irony free and so old fashioned and dusty, that it feels fresh and different. If your little reader likes dogs, westerns, goofy adventure, buddy stories or simple but earnest laughs, this could be a good choice.
This book gets my vote as the best book for kids ever written. I recently read this aloud to a group of kids from age 4 to 10, and they all found it gripping and hilarious. Probably the biggest fan was a 60-year old grandmother joining the group. The writing is vivid and funny, with irony that comes across just as well to a 6-year old as to a 60-year old.
