Antes del amanecer, una niña y su papá cepillan sus caballos y salen a recorrer juntos las calles de una ciudad que despierta lentamente. Mientras trotan, Papá cuenta historias de vaqueros, de amistad y orgullo.

La pequeña descubre que ella también se siente fuerte y acompañada mientras monta a caballo, como los cowboys. Ella también es uno de ellos.

Escrito de manera reflexiva y lírica por Stephanie Seales, este álbum ilustrado tiene las vibrantes ilustraciones de C. G. Esperanza, galardonado con los premios Coretta Scott King y Pura Belpré por sus trabajos previos.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A young girl and her father share an early morning horseback ride around their city in My Daddy Is a Cowboy, a picture book celebration of "just-us time," perfect for fans of My Papi Has a Motocycle.

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 she 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 picture book is a celebration of Black joy, outdoor play, and quality time spent between child and parent.

Tall. High as the clouds.
Strong as a horse's back.
Like a cowboy.
