Cowgirl Kate and Cocoa: School Days by Erica Silverman

                  This is a fun, early chapter book that contiues the adventures of Cowgirl Kate, and her horse, Cocoa. Kate loves to ride Cocoa every day, but one day, Kate tells Cocoa that she can not play with him all day today. She has to go to school. Cocoa is very sad and tries to follow Kate's school bus to school. This book is made up of four chapters. In each chapter, Kate and Cocoa have various adventures. Cocoa discovers that even though Cowgirl Kate has new adventures and has made new friends. Cocoa will always be one of her best friends.   The illustrations by Betsy Lewin are just adorable and really depict the fun friendship Cowgirl Kate has with Cocoa. Readers will also enjoy the other two books in the series Cowgirl Kate and Cocoa and Cowgirl Kate and Cocoa: Partners.  The first book, Cowgirl Kate and Cocoa, was the 2005 honor book for the Geisel award. The Geisel award is presented for the most distinguished book for beginning readers.  This book, Cowgirl Kate and Cocoa: School Days is recommended for students in grades 2-3. It would also make a good read-aloud for older preschoolers as well.
