"It’s me again, Hank the Cowdog." Hank’s author, John R. Erickson, has been entertaining audiences with Hank programs for twenty-nine years, all the way from Fairbanks, Alaska, to Key West, Florida. Accompanying himself on the banjo, he sings songs from the Hank audio books and does readings from the stories (about sixty-five character voices). There is a reason why the Hank the Cowdog stories have sold more than 7.7 million copies: kids love to read them, even those who think they don't enjoy reading.
