Willie Out West is a cute children’s story about an imaginative little boy walrus who appears bored and has a big imagination. While waiting for supper, Willie imagines (or is it real?) that he goes on a Wild West adventure and saves a town, becoming their hero. He makes it back home in time for supper and thinks it was all a fun dream but then finds a sheriff’s star on the floor. If you like anthropomorphizing animals in human roles, you will like this book! If you don’t, you might not like it. This is a common theme in children’s books and some will say that it is overdone, but I say if it’s popular and it is what kids want, why not make more like it? I saw a few editing errors such as overuse of commas but nothing that put me off too much.
