Bubba is bossed around the family ranch by his wicked step-daddy and his nasty stepbrothers, Dwayne and Milton. Bubba never complains, though. He’s a real cowboy – tough as leather (and cute as a cow’s ear).
When Miz Lurleen, the purtiest rancher in Texas, decides to throw a ball to find herself a real feller, Bubba has to stay at home. “You smell more like the cattle than the cattle do,” laugh Dwayne and Milton. But with the help of Bubba’s fairy godcow, and a little Texas magic, Miz Lurleen finds the cowboy prince she’s always dreamed of.
With its western brand of language and humor, this Texas retelling of the Cinderella story will really rope in readers.
