Bookroo's summary
When a playful dad is mistaken for a real horse and kidnapped by rustlers, his clever kids embark on a wild chase. From rodeos to circus high wires, they follow his hoofprints, determined to rescue him. Will they outsmart the rustlers and bring their dad home? Join the thrilling adventure as the kids don Mounty gear and face unexpected challenges, leading to a triumphant return and a heartwarming reunion.
From the publisher
“Giddy-Up, Daddy!”is the newest imaginative picture book from celebrated cartoonist Troy Cummings. When rootin’-tootin’ Daddy the “horse” is eyeballed by some rotten rustlers, it’s all the kids can do to keep him out of the big lugs’ lasso. What follows is a quick detour through a rodeo, a trip across a circus high wire, and a near-miss in the Rockies, till the kids don Mounty gear and capture the bad guys for good. A celebratory parade at sundown leads the kids and Daddy back home into Mom’s waiting arms.”
