Publisher's summary

Lost: one little boy. When Little Alfred runs away from home and winds up in the Dark Unchanted Forest being trailed by a bobcat, Hank the Cowdog knows that it's up to him to save his young master. So, mustering up all the courage that a Head of Ranch Security can come up with, he bravely makes his way into the forest. But before long, Hank is even more lost than Alfred. Can he find his master and get them both out of the woods? Or is he destined to pass the rest of his days going in circles?

You'll hear the songs "Disorientation", "I Love All Kinds of Stuff", and "The Storm".

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

Another fun story

In this book, you get to meet some new characters as well as become reacquainted with some of your old favorites. Alfred grows a little older and has to deal with a new baby sister.

Poor Hank - up to his usual mess!

For both adults and children to listen to....... Hank is a cow-dog on Loper's cattle ranch in the Texas panhandle. All the stories are told from his perspective and if anyone is a dog lover then these stories are a MUST for your delight and enjoyment. Adults and children will both laugh at the scrapes Hank and his sidekick, Drover, get into. Adults will love the double entedres, the malapropisms, the spoonerisms that pepper the story. The narration is superb with the author able to take on many, many different voices. Our family started listening to these stories in the 80's, first on tapes which we literally wore out, then CD's and now on our computer and iPods!

Hank the Cowdog is the BEST!

Hank the Cowdog books are the BEST books!! Both my boys (ages 9 &6) LOVE them and I LOVE them too! These are great for the WHOLE entire family. We love John R. Erickson narration. He is the all time ultimate cowboy storyteller!

I love Hank the Cowdog!

I really enjoy listening to Hank the Cowdog with my daughter! The writing and tone of the first-dog narration are really well done and great fun. Lots of word-play with an adult vocabulary (meaning sophisticated, not raunchy).
One gripe: the recordings have too much background music. I enjoy the periodic songs "written" by the characters, but the background its sometimes too loud and distracting.
