"You Can't Be a Cowboy-Your Hat's Too Big" is a delightful story poem, richly illustrated with western scenes, horses, cowboys, and a magic coyote, and is certain to appeal to the four to ten year age group. Lupe runs away from his ranch home looking for cowboy work denied him at home because of his troublesome sombrero and his annoying roping practices. Lost in the badlands, his encounter with the coyote brings him a whole new life.
