Hank The Cowdog

Hank the Cowdog is the protagonist and title character of a popular series of children's humorous mystery novels, written by John R. Erickson, and illustrated by Gerald L. Holmes. The series began in 1982 with a couple of short stories about Hank, the self-styled "Head of Ranch Security". Over 30 books have since been written featuring Hank, his friends, and adventures on the M-Cross ranch in the western Texas Panhandle. Every book in the series has been recorded in an audio book format, making it the longest-running popular children's audio book series. The books all include songs sung by Hank and other characters, these are all performed on the tapes by Erickson. It has received various awards and acclaims, lauded by Publishers Weekly and USA Today. The Hank the Cowdog books are supported by various libraries and teaching programs, and related lesson plans, which usually incorporate the books with cassette tapes, are available through Maverick Books (the series' original publisher). The first six books have been translated into Spanish by the Argentine publisher Editorial Sudamericana.
