Laura Norder, Sheriff of Butts Canyon

Description

Laura Norder lives her life by the Golden Rules and so should everybody else. But being sheriff of Butts Canyon at the age of ten is a big job to handle, and when a no-good rule-breaking bandit causes chaos in the town, enough is enough! It's time for Laura to step up to the plate and catch the masked mischief-maker before he breaks any more of her rules! Another puntastic comedy caper from one of our favourite author and illustrator duos.

"A rootin' tootin', pun-laden book that parents and children will enjoy reading together - especially if you're the type that like to put on a voice or two when you perform" -- The Letterpress Project "A laugh-out-loud fun tale featuring a feisty cowgirl sheriff, who has trouble on her hands as she tries to get everyone else to play by the rules" -- National Literacy Trust "Guy Bass comes out all guns blazing in his latest comic adventure which features some typically wonderful characters ... It's very funny indeed, but there are lessons for us all and a sly bit of political satire too. Yee haw!" -- LoveReading4Kids, Book of the Month "Wonderfully witty with the most superbly named characters to make children giggle (perhaps they can make up some more?), this is a Wild West adventure girls and boys will love" -- Parents in Touch "Guy Bass is a hilarious writer for primary school aged children, and particularly adept with an amusing pun ... full of brilliant cowboy slogans and Wild West atmosphere" BookTrust
