Contains 8 stories
The Love-Bug Bites
8 pp · humor; children; western-frontier
Spunky KiddStanley (talking horse)Cora Sue LeeSam KiddBlack Widow (mare)

In "The Love-Bug Bites," Spunky’s sudden romantic antics have Stanley rolling his eyes—until he meets Black Widow at the Lee ranch and finds himself inexplicably swept up in the same dizzying affection. What starts as mockery quickly turns into a case of mistaken feelings, as the frontier’s most unlikely romances bloom under the desert sun.

Aches 'n' Pains

Spunky KiddStanleySam Kidd

In "Aches 'n' Pains," Spunky’s sprained ankle lands him in the doghouse—literally, if his father’s strict ranch routine is any indication. When Stanley volunteers to take over the chores, his over-the-top act of faking a sprained leg backfires in the most painfully funny way.

Bucky the BurroMarvinJoe Sniffwellneighbor kid

In a dusty roadside town, Mr. Sniffwell is desperate to unload his notoriously loud burro, Bucky, who’s driven every buyer away with his braying. When no one will take the beast, he reluctantly pays his new neighbor to take it off his hands—only to realize too late that the neighbor is now stuck with the same noisy problem.

Heap Big Soldier

In "Heap Big Soldier," Little-Injun takes Spunky on a tour of modern Indian life, showing off his dad’s army Jeep and other war surplus gear—proof that even on the frontier, progress marches on. The story blends humor and frontier charm, poking fun at the contrast between old ways and the new, military-flavored lifestyle.
