In this spare and powerful story set in the Old West, people in a small town live in constant worry of another visit from the Outlaw.
The subtle, beautiful mixed-media art with its nineteenth-century textural references perfectly complements this original story from debut author and illustrator Nancy Vo..
It takes the courage of a small boy to change the course of events ...
But when someone recognizes him as the Outlaw, the crowd turns on him.
He even builds a horse trough.
He takes it upon himself to fix everything that is in disrepair -- the clapboard schoolhouse, the train station platform.
Time passes, and one day a stranger rides into town.
Then the Outlaw suddenly and mysteriously disappears.
