Aprašymas

William Frederick "Buffalo Bill" Cody (February 26, 1846 - January 10, 1917) was an American soldier, bison hunter and showman. He was born in the Iowa Territory (now the U.S. state of Iowa), in the town of Le Claire. He lived in Canada before moving with his family to the Kansas Territory. Buffalo Bill received the Medal of Honor in 1872 for his service in the US Army as a scout. He was one of the most colorful and inspirational people of the America's Old West; and he became famous for the many wild west shows he organized and in which he performed for over thirty years. He toured Great Britain, Europe and the United States, and in the town of Cody (named after him) he built the famous Irma Hotel, where you can go and stay when you visit the town of Cody on your way to the Yellowstone National Park! Award winning author, attorney and former teacher Penelope Dyan and photographer John D, Weigand, show you a small part of this grand little town that still captures the unique flavor of the old west as it entertains and delights kids of all ages. If you are a kid, or a kid at heart, this is the place for you! Feel the old west all around you, and let your imagination go wild. Then learn all you can about the old west, and the native Americans who lived off the land and treasured it, and do your best to understand it all and to continue in the preservation of America's treasures. Rhyme and repetition enhance reading skills as adults encourage young bedding readers to guess what words are coming next in the rhyme. Open a dialog about the old west, and see through the eyes of a child. Learning isn't always about museums and words on a page. What you learn through experience and your own imagination, is what you keep with you forever.
