Cowgirl Kate and Cocoa: Rain or Shine

Bibliographic Info: Silverman, E. (2009). Cowgirl Kate and Cocoa: Rain or Shine. Illus. Betsy Lewin. Boston, Massachusetts: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt.

Annotation:

Genre: Animal Fiction/Friendship

Grade Level: K-3

Readers who will like this book: Any child who likes horses will love the stories about Kate and Cocoa. Although it seems slightly aimed at young girls, I think boys would enjoy it just as much.

Personal response: Until this class, I had not heard of the Cowgirl Kate and Cocoa series, but after reading this book I think I will go purchase the series for my daughter. The story was silly and endearing and was an easier read for second graders to early third grade. I rate this book at a 4.

A question you would ask before reading: If you could have any animal in the world to join you on adventures, what would it be?
