He’s seven feet tall and hairy, and the only thing worse than his terrible smell is his beastly reputation. The Mean One! Who can save the citizens of Sharpesville from the nastiest outlaw who ever infested the West? Enter Gregory and his adoptive mother, Maw, a crow with a wit as sharp as a stinging nettle. Gregory and Maw have come up with a plan to save the town and to discover why the Mean One’s so dang mean. It’ll be risky. They’ll have to take a ride back through time! A tall tale with a heart. Ages 8 and up.

"This sprightly romp belongs next to Sid Fleischman's Western comedies on the must-read shelves of middle-graders."
