Come listen to my story,

Come listen to my song,

About a handsome stranger,

And a horse called Zebra Dun.

When a bespectacled, citified, "educated fellow" shows up at the Z-Bar Ranch asking to borrow a horse, the cowboys think they'll have some fun.

They offer him the Zebra Dun, the meanest, wildest, most ornery horse around.

The newcomer not only rides the horse with ease; he also out-wrangles every other hand on the ranch -- proving that every book-learned fellow ain't necessarily a plumb greenhorn.

With wry good humor and a sure hand, Maria Cristina Brusca re-illustrates this wise cowboy fable for the 1990s. The book contains notes on the text, music for those who want to sing along -- and a collection of cowboys whose ethnic diversity gives children an image of the real Old West.
