My daddy is a cowboy / words by Stephanie Seales ; pictures by C.G. Esperanza.
"Tall. High as the clouds. Strong as a horse's back. Like a cowboy. In the early hours before dawn, a young girl and her father greet their horses and ride together through the waking city streets. As they trot along, Daddy tells cowboy stories filled with fun and community, friendship, discovery, and pride. Seeing her city from a new vantage point and feeling seen in a new way, the child discovers that see too is a cowboy -- strong and confident in who she is. Thoughtfully and lyrically written by debut author Stephanie Seales, with vibrant illustrations from award-winning artist C. G. Esperanza, this beautiful story is a celebration of Black joy, outdoor play, and quality time spent between child and parent." -- Jacket flap.
