Publisher's summary

Forecast for disaster. When Sally May and Loper head off to visit the relatives, leaving Slim in charge of Little Alfred, Hank knows that trouble is sure to come knocking. But not even the Head of Ranch Security could have predicted what would happen. First, Slimis struck down with the measles. Then a blizzard hits the ranch, trapping them in the house with no heat or electricity. Somehow, Hank's got to find a way to get them out of this mess...before they're snowed in for good!

Hank, Drover, and Alfred join to sing "We'll Never Pull This Stunt Again".

Hot dog: Don't miss out on any of Hank the Cowdog's adventures.

Hilarious

Funny, almost nothing to hate, pretty good nararation. Classic hank the cow dog, but there is the fact that there is almost no Pete in this book.

A review from a 12 year old

I LOVE the narrator’s voice and background sounds along with the music. I love the characters, I like how the author includes little details such as the weather.

So funny! Slim gets the measles while babysitting.

Little Alfred has the measles but Sally Mae and Loper need to take a trip to Abilene to see her parents. What to do? well, leave Little Alfred in the care of Slim and Hank, that's what. But, we all know what's in store when Loper asks Slim, "You've had the measles, haven't you?" and Slim mumbles "Nope, and I ain't planning to." oops, foreshadowing! Add a blizzard and Hank and Drovers incompetence and BY GOLLY you have a great story! All the different accents are great and we get a surprise visit from someone who can swoop in and save the day.

If you haven't discovered Hank the Cowdog on audio then you are missing out. It doesn't matter your age, these are entertaining. If you want a quiet car, get your kids hooked on listening to Hank the Cowdog. This one is a special favorite of the kids, perhaps because of the song, perhaps because Hank and Little Alfred get into a lot of trouble.

Classics

I’ve been listening to these audiobooks for 20 years and they never get old. We even named the old family dog after Hank.
Nobody can narrate the books like the author, his voices and songs are spot on!
These are great fun for kids and adults.

Great story! Hank does it again!

A wonderful story. Although it did get a little scary when Alfred and Hank went out in the blizzard.
