A widely published cowboy poet and western painter, Mike's rhymes touch people where they live. His poems are so genuine because this cowboy has been there and done that. Mike has been a working cowboy, saddlebronc rider, packer, horse trainer and truck driver. Wendy Liddle's cartoons capture the essence of each poem in her award-winning way. She has been drawing professionally for about ten years and this is her fourth book with Mike.
