Pecos Bill was a great read. The big idea in this book was to talk about how Pecos Bill became a one of the greatest cowboy who ever lived. I liked the book because Pecos Bill was well developed. The author told every aspect of his life and how he became the greatest cowboy in such great detail. For example, Pecos Bill was raised by wolves and so he didn't know how to read and write until a man found him and brought him into town. From then on he learned to be a cowboy and became the best. The second reason I liked this book was because of the organization of the text. The illustrator put the text into boxes that had ropes as it's boarder. I think that this enhanced the text and gave it the cowboy feel. ( )
