A Man-Sized Pet
By Tuttle, W. C.
In the remote mining country of Sleeping Creek, three eccentric frontiersmen pride themselves on keeping only the fiercest kind of companions. But when timid, tidy Bantie Weyman acquires a pet of his own, his friends’ swaggering notions of courage and “man-sized” animals are put to uproarious test. W. C. Tuttle’s comic frontier tale delivers a lively clash of wilderness bravado, practical jokes, and backwoods absurdity.
