As I like to say, "Don't worry about a thing." I've found the answer, & it's in the delightful & fun book, "Why Cows Need Cowboys and other Seldom-Told Tales from the American West," It's Western Writers of America's first anthology for young readers. Founded in 1953, Western Writers of America is the nation's oldest & most distinguished organization of professional writing about the early frontier & the American West, its past & present. Young readers will become acquainted with the first African American female stagecoach driver along with the Navajo code talkers of World War Two, not to mention in 1821, a Plains Native American girl trekked some 1400 miles to visit Washington DC! The editors of "Why Cows Need Cowboys," are longtime members of Western Writers of America. As I like to say, "Westward Ho, & enjoy the ride." Why not check out this neat read from TwoDot An imprint of The Rowman & Littlefield Publishing group, Inc.twodotbooks.com. The book's wonderfully edited by the most capable Nancy Plain, & Rocky Gibbons. Who was Lotta Crabtree & what did she do? You'll have to read "Why Cows Need Cowboys" to find out. My lips are sealed,
