There’s a new dog on the ranch, and Hank is none too thrilled about it. Hank’s supposed to keep an eye on Jake the Birddog ‘til his owner shows up. Jake has other plans. Jake needs to get to Madagascar before someone makes off with his treasure! As if Hank doesn’t have enough worries, there’s also a saddle thief on the loose. Is Jake in cahoots with the robber? Are there monkeys under the toolshed?

Here is a great chapter book option for middle elementary boys, even reluctant readers! Written by Christian Cowboy, John R. Erickson, these delightful stories will capture your imagination and your funny bone. Be prepared to laugh out loud with Hank the Cowdog, Head of Ranch Security. These stories were absolute favorites in the Bjorkman house for many years. There are over 50 titles in the series, so once you’re hooked, come back and find the next episode. Some of the humor is a bit “earthy”, as when Hank chooses to bathe in the septic tank overflow, but we have not found any of it objectionable.
