Wonderful books!

My daughter fell in love with the Clarence and Smokey books a few years ago, and now that she's 7 she still loves to read them regularly. The three books in the series are hard to find, but they are some of the funnest children's books around!

Loved it, Loved it, Loved it

I can't tell you how much I enjoyed Gene Adams book. After working on dude ranches for 10 years and I can relate. I think children will will love Clarence and Smokey, and have fun going on adventures with them. I hope there will be more to come from Gene, Clarence and Smokey.
