"The descriptive simile of Julius Lester in this book is exceptional, and makes for some striking reading. Julius Lester makes the old American West come alive as few others do, and in a way that most of us have never seen. The idea of black cowboys isn't something that people usually associate with the wild west, but the story of Bob Lemmons as told in this picture book is a true one, and does nicely the work of expanding the reader's view of the frontier west time period. As always, Julius Lester excels at relating events that are not personally familiar to most people in ways that easily make them identifiable, by portraying the very human emotions of his characters, and their thoughts and feelings that we can all readily understand. It is this, in my mind, that makes "Black Cowboy, Wild Horses" the very good book that it is."
"This picture follows the life of Bob Lemmons. He was a former slave who became a legendary Texas cowboy. It tells the story of a man and his horse named Warrior. In the story, Warrior challenges the stallion leader to take over the wild herd and bring it to the corral. This is a get read aloud that appeals to young boys. It describes the life of a daring cowboy and his wild horse. It would definitely be an enhancement to any classroom library."
