Will you climb mountains and cross deserts to save the Sheriff’s horse? And can you collect the StoryQuest Star along the way? Shovelling horse poo for pocket money sure does stink. It's worse than wiping tables at the ol' saloon and it's worse than untangling rope at Lassos 'R' Us. But you're in the Wild West, these are the Sheriff's stables, and there's a hint of adventure hanging in the air. The Sheriff's horse has giddy-upped into a cactus and caught the Itchity Fever. Someone will have to leave town to find him a cure and that someone is YOU. Will you climb mountains and cross deserts to help your four-legged friend? Can you outsmart Billy the Goat and brave Crabbity Jack's Shack to find the ingredients? And will you collect the StoryQuest Star along the way? Good luck, intrepid StoryQuester - if anyone can save the Sheriff's horse, it's YOU. The Good, the Bad and the Sheriff's Horse is an EXPERT level StoryQuest adventure book.
