Texas Jack at the Alamo

4.2/5 ( ratings)

Texas Jack, a long-eared jackrabbit, tells the
story of the Alamo and the brave men who fought and died at the most famous
battle in Texas history. Vibrant illustrations by James Rice bring to life the
events of the struggle. In this tale you'll meet Davy Crockett, Jim Bowie,
Colonel William Travis, and the Mexican general Santa Anna.
Texas Jack vividly describes the course of the battle, and the carefully
researched illustrations recreate the Alamo exactly as it was in 1836. Readers
age eight and up will enjoy the story, and Texans and non-Texans alike will be
enchanted by this historical account of the birth of the Lone Star State.
James Rice is a well-known author and illustrator of children's books. He
has written fifteen books, and illustrated eight others. Rice is perhaps best
known for his Gaston the Alligator series, and more than 600,000 copies
of his books are in print. The Texas Commission on the Arts has appointed him
to the Texas Artist-in-Residence program.
