Junction Tales by Glenn McCarty illustrated by Joe Sutphin*

 My son and I enjoyed Mr. McCarty's book The Misadventures of Tumbleweed Thompson  so much that I bought and read aloud to him this book of tales.  Mr. McCarty sets up the format as Eugene cataloging the stories to share with the readers.  Although Eugene Appleton and Tumbleweed have not arrived at Rattlesnake Junction during the time of these tales, readers will still recognize some characters (Wendell, Rubicon).  Of course, Eugene includes a Dead-Eye Dan story! 

The tone is humorous, fun and exciting.  We were delighted to return to Rattlesnake Junction and anticipate more adventures in this frontier town with these likeable characters.  

*Highly recommend.

-We own this book.
