Author of Christmas on the Plains

Author Russell Isbell, inspired by the teachings of his parents while he was a young boy, shares colorful visions of Texas with accompanying stories that capture the imagination of all children. "Texas Twang" is the dialect of choice when reading this rhyming, rhythmic tale set on the Plains of Texas. Inspired by his daughter and her friends, Russell maintains a young-at-heart attitude and is forever blessed with the sounds and joys of children's laughter. Spending time with family and friends outdoors is one of the most precious and simplest pleasures that should be enjoyed by all!

"The year that I had Emily Isbell in my kindergarten class, her father, Mr. Russell Isbell, came and read to the class. One of my fondest memories of Mr. Isbell was when he read his story, Christmas on the Plains. It was such a cute story, and he read it with such animation and enthusiasm that I told him he should have it published! Here it is six years later and it is going to print! I am very excited for Mr. Isbell."

"Occasionally, a book comes along that is as fun for the adult reading as for the child listening - Christmas on the Plains is one of those rare finds. You'll love following Rusty Russ and his companions, Reno, Riley, and Sally, as well as the characters they encounter in the modern-day Wild West. Read it over and over and still enjoy!"
