The Case of the Blazing Sky

Hank the Cowdog

By: John R. Erickson

The heat is on!

It's summertime, and the weather on Hank's West Texas ranch is hot and dry. So dry, in fact, that everyone is on the lookout for prairie fires. So Hank bravely adds the title of Head of Fire Safety to his already impressive list of responsibilities and gets to work.

But patrolling for fires is dull, and it's hard to do on an empty stomach. Despite the distractions - desperate hunger, a cruel trick at the hands of Pete the Barncat - Hank somehow manages to stay focused on the job at hand. And it's a good thing he does, because sure enough, things on the ranch start to heat up!

Hank sings a song about "Chickens", and later he follows the sound of buzzards, singing, "Call in the Dogs, Put Out the Fire".

love the stories that include Wallace and Junior.

Great story and seems like it may be based on true to life events. Wallace and Junior are some of our favorite characters. Never know when they will show up. Really fun story.

Good for what it is

There are other books in this series that are better but this one’s all right.

Super fun to listen to. Go Hank the cow dog

Loved the book like all the cow dog books. Maybe some Fay a movie or tv series.

Always funny Hank.

Great, entertaining, easy to listen to! John Erickson is always a mastermind at making his characters come to life in his stories.

That hank actually was the hero and that buzzards can sing!

I like how it’s so easy to read/listen to that no matter how many times you read/listen to it I’m always excited for what comes next!
