出版社/著者からの内容紹介
No outlaw could draw as fast as Lightning Larry. But what really terrified those bad men was that peculiar gun of his. It didn't shoot bullets. It shot light. And Larry always aimed for the heart.
Can Larry save the town of Brimstone from Evil-Eye McNeevil's outlaw gang? Find out in this rip-roaring original tale of a gunfighter with a huge smile and a hankering for lemonade.
From Publishers Weekly
Shepard pulls out all the B-western cliches for this tale of a do-goodin' stranger wearing a yella hat and two unusual six-shooters. When the outlaws of a dusty town called Brimstone get a load of Larry, they know he's one pesky varmint. For one thing, he smiles too much, and not only that, he prefers lemonade over more bracing beverages. One by one, Crooked Curt, Stinky Steve, and the most ferocious critter of all, Evil-Eye McNeevil, wind up in showdowns with Larry; they consider him especially dangerous because his guns don't shoot bullets, just magic bolts of gold light that turn bad guys into neighborly folks. Goffe's animated illustrations feature conventional Wild West scenes, with movie-set storefronts and scruffy townsfolk. (Unfortunately, though there are a few buffalo gals, no Calamity Janes are in sight.) While it's safe to assume that children will have played cowboys before reading this book, parents should be forewarned of the amount of gunplay here. Weapons used in the name of peace send a mixed message, even in such an agreeable work. Ages 6-8.

The Legend of Lightning Larry
1999/12/14
形式:ハードカバー
My husband just loved reading this book to our boys! The cowboy (Larry) uses his guns to shoot lightning bolts that make bad guys "nice". Their friends are not too thrilled about that!

Outlaws beware!
2009/1/22
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
This book is set in the Old West where bad guys could be found on every street. In every nook and cranny you could find a rotten, no good outlaw.
They feared nothing at all. After all they were dirty and mean. As mean as mean can get. That is until Lightining Larry rode into the town of Brimstone.
As he got off of his horse and entered the Cottonmouth saloon, he had a smile as big as Texas on his face. As he walked to the bar and ordered a large cold mug of Lemonade everyone turned to see who it could be.
Now I know what you must be thinking--how in the world would any one fear a cowboy who drank lemonade? I had the same feelings myself when I started to read this book.
But then Mr. Shepard did what he does best--created a character that all children would love. A character that children would love.
Another big five from this reviewer-- who bought this book for her grand kids. That's right I bought this book. Now that should give you some idea how good this book is. As a reviewer we are use to getting books for free. When I saw this I had to buy it.

GREAT for storytelling
2010/10/15
形式:ペーパーバック
Back in high school I used this story as a script for a competitive speaking script. In Kentucky "storytelling" was one of the most popular events, because (unlike traditional events) you could jump around, scream, yell, and you didn't have to hold a script while you read it.
Now, I have kids, and I can't wait to show them just how much fun this book was to me back then. It's a fantastic story, well written, and well illustrated.
