Black & Kiddo with Blurbs.JPG

August 15, 2018

 

Happy ON SALE DATE to author Brenda Clem Black! 

BLACK & KIDDO: A True Story Of Dust, Determination, and Cowboy Dreams follows the converging coming-of-age stories of Keith Black (who almost became the real Roy Rogers) and his feisty love, Kiddo, as their lives are honed in the flatlands of Texas, the high plains of New Mexico, and the green hills of the Arkansas Ozarks. 
 

Cover Design

The cover design was done by Rebecca Black at Rebecca Black Design. Seeing a name trend? Becca is Black and Kiddo's great granddaughter!

Interior Design

You’ll appreciate many aspects of this book’s interior design by the talented Amy Ashford  such as the wagon silhouettes pictured below, pulled from Black’s handwritten notes on cowboy stationary.

Each chapter is set to the music of the period, so while you're reading this nonfiction tale, you can also listen to the tunes of the time.
