Laura has a mutiny on her hands when she tries to play by the rules in this non-stop wild-western comedy from award-winning author Guy Bass.
Laura Norder lives her life by the Golden Rules and so should everybody else. But being Sheriff of Butts Canyon at the age of ten is a big job to handle, and when a no-good rule-breaking bandit causes chaos in the town, enough is enough! It's time for Laura to step up to the plate and catch the masked mischief-maker before he breaks any more of her rules!
Particularly suitable for readers aged 7+ with a reading age of 7.
