Description

Baby animals are springing up on the ranch. Cowgirl Kate and Cocoa have a lot to do to help these new friends feel at home. But Cocoa’s not sure he wants new friends, especially if they mean more work. With Cowgirl Kate’s gentle nudging—and snacks!—Cocoa’s happy to help out, and work is as fun as play.

 

Erica Silverman’s sweet easy-to-read chapters lassoed to Betsy Lewin’s charming illustrations makes a sure-fire finale for this favorite early reader series.
