Hey Hank-Readers! 

This post is the first in a series of stories covering independent book stores, gift shops, etc., around the country that carry Hank the Cowdog books. Not only are these owners great people and Hank-fans themselves (and, therefore, fun to read about), BUT you also just might hear of some in your area that you hadn't known about before! And, if that happens, be sure to stop by!

First on the List: Book People in Austin, TX

Not only is Hank a Staff-Pick at their store, Sarah (from Book People) writes: "I feel safe knowing that Hank the Cowdog is Head of Ranch Security! Nuthin' can get past this detective, and his assistant Drover. Coyotes, Rustlers, Rattlers and Racoons beware - Hank is on the case!"
