This is a simple poem, speaking as if from a young boy's heart, as he travels through town--with his father always nearby. The boy has seizures and the poem unfolds how the father and son work-out this situation, as to "freedom" for the child to grow. A must for young children that have seizures--and a nice way to share the worries of a parent (as there is one main focal page of the father's anquish, though not too harsh for children). The poem is told with a "cut-out" little cowboy child, and his "cut-out" dad, presented on PHOTOS OF HARLINGEN, TEXAS. This book is in black and white, but color will be available also, for the benefit of the pictures that display recognizable spots in Harlingen. Color cost so much to print--thus, this book is available in black and white. This book was mentioned by the characters in the fictional Jake Smith Ranch Series.

This is a lesson-story--by doing one page at a time (until) mastering the simple words (and why they are pronounced as such) your child can learn how to build up to new-level words. You must first teach your child the SOUNDS (not the names) of the alphabet, and guide your child into pronouncing the words. Thus, the child learns to "crack the word code" and read and NOT memorize only. There is a SECOND copy of this story printed in the back for the child to use for WRITING IN WITH RED INK. They may circle words, to their hearts content, as they learn.
