Stories rooted in the West. Carried by the curious heart.
A child has only one job: to be a child.” -Diane C Whitlock
Howdy Pards,
Come on in, kick off your boots, and belly up to the table for some real fine storytelling! Your kids and grandkids are gonna love Cowboy Clancy and Roy the Wonder Horse. I guarantee a grand guffaw good time as you’ll read these stories over and over again.
I am a lover of all things that make children smile and help them lean into being their best selves. This is why I write children’s picture books.
There seems to be so much pressure for kids to do more these days. I want to give the permission slip that says: “Simply be your young self. Remain a child for just a bit longer.”
From where I stand, it would seem there’ll be plenty of time to be an adult! Childhood should be a time of adventure, laughing, loving, and exploring the great outdoors! Yes, there are valuable lessons to be learned, but most are learned through living.
Are you ready for a tangle of laughter, wonderment, and wild Western adventure?
Saddle up! Ride with your kids, Cowboy Clancy, and Roy the Wonder Horse on a landscape of colorful Wyoming ranch life.
Throw in a bushel of humor and find the true meaning of friendship and belonging.
Whether you’re a little bit country or big city, you will cheer for Cowboy Clancy and Roy the Wonder Horse.
These pardners not only share in the daily chores but also rope in all the adventures of a child’s imagination. Don’t worry, though! No matter where the trail takes them, they always make it home in time for supper.
PULL DOWN YOUR HATS, BOYS!
IT’S ABOUT TO GET WESTERN!

Enjoy the whole picture book series for ages 4-8
Right out of the chute, in my first book, Cowboy Clancy and Roy rope a rattler in their first go-round: “Ropin’ a Rattler.”
“Sunday Go To Meetin'” is the second book in the series. Can you hear the choir singing as Roy gallops Clancy right down the center aisle at Sunday church? Oh, Clancy’s mom ain’t gonna be real happy ’bout this!
And thirdly, Cowboy Clancy and Roy meet a tiny Cowgirl from Scotland at the sale barn. Think: Scottish Highlands meets the Wyoming high-prairie lands, as Clancy gets to take a friend along to show her the ropes on the ranch!
Roy the Wonder Horse is a good boy. He really is! He lives in wide open spaces with tall grass and plenty of treats.
Roy doesn’t mean to cause trouble, but dang it, he just can’t seem to help himself! Like his miniature cowboy, Clancy, his playful imagination is bigger than all outdoors. Join them in The Adventures of Cowboy Clancy & Roy The Wonder Horse.
