Big-Enough

Big-Enough by James, Will. Paperback edition. ISBN: 9780878423699.

A delightful tale for adults and children alike, BIG- ENOUGH is the story of a cowboy and a cow horse, born on the same day, who together grow "big-enough for most anything." Young Billy was a born cowboy - unfortunately, his parents have other aspirations for him and send him off to be "educated and turned into something else." But one day Billy takes his horse, Big- Enough, and departs to pursue his true destiny, finding adventure, adversity, and, ultimately, manhood. BIG- ENOUGH is a coming-of-age-in-the-West novel of the highest quality, capturing the spirit of a young cowboy, his best horse, and the American West itself. "It combines the lives of a boy and a horse as inseparably and convincingly as it presents the American West and an absorbing story." (The Nation)
