When a snake slithers into the sleepy town of Dustpan, Texas, the sheriff knows for darned sure that it shouldn't be allowed to stay--even if it's really a friendly kind of rattler. No matter if the neighborly reptile has managed to charm the customers at the local restaurant, entertain the Ladies Sewing and join the kids for playtime. After all, that's the law of the west: NO RATTLESNAKES!But when little Idie Mae Tumbleweed crawls her way over to dangerous Deadman's Gulch, the rattler proves he's one jim-dandy hero. Author Sarah Burell and illustrator Bryan Langdo have whipped up one very funny wild-west tale with a unique new star.
