Dust Devil

Here is the thrilling, thigh-slapping companion to Swamp Angel, the beloved Caldecott Honorâ‚¬â€œwinning picture book.

Swamp Angel has a reputation as the greatest woodswoman and wildest wildcat in all of Tennessee. But when she grows too big for that state, she moves to Montana, a place so sizeable, even Angel can fit in. Itâ‚¬s there that she wrestles a raging storm to the ground and, at its center, finds herself a sidekickâ‚¬"a horse she names Dust Devil. And when Backward Bart, the orneriest, ugliest outlaw ever known, starts terrorizing the prairie, seems like Angel and Dust Devil may be the only ones strong enough to stop him.

Dust Devil received four starred reviews and was named a New York Times Notable Children's Book of the Year and an Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Winner. Children will be captivated by the beauty and exaggerated humor of Paul Zelinskyâ‚¬s American primitiveâ‚¬â€œstyle paintings and the wit and energy of Anne Isaacsâ‚¬s unparalleled storytelling. Here is an original folktale starring an extraordinary gal who is as feisty as she is funny and as courageous as she is kind.
