Little Britches and the Rattlers by Eric Kimmel
Little Britches saddles her pony and heads out for the rodeo. She hopes to win first prize in the calf-roping contest. Along the way, she meets seven cunning rattlesnakes. One by one, they threaten to eat her up! But Little Britches is smart. She knows how to bargain with those rattlesnakes and come out on top! Endearing graphite, watercolor, and digital illustrations by Vincent Nguyen bring this southwestern romp to an outlandish finish.
“This will make for a swell read-aloud, highlighted by the repeated threat ‘Little Britchch-ches, we’re gonna s-s-swaller you up!’ complemented by the glib silliness in Nguyen’s artwork as the snakes try to fill out the little girl’s clothing” —Booklist “The colorful snakes look wily and ridiculous when dressed in her duds. A fun read-aloud.” —School Library Journal “As Little Britches saddles her pony and heads out to a calf-roping content, she decides to take a shortcut through the dry gulch. When her journey is interrupted several times by rattlesnakes who threaten to ‘s-s-swaller’ her up, the quick-thinking, pint-sized cowgirl offers up her doeskin vest, chaps, red boots, and other attire in exchange for permission to mosey along…it’s a rattling fun tale.” —Kirkus Reviews
