Review of  “A Cowgirl’s Story”
Starring Bailee Madison and Pat Boone

I found this movie surprisingly refreshing, not at all what I expected. It was a wonderful, powerful lesson in faith. Bailee Madison does a great job depicting Dusty Rhodes and her story of loss and immense love for her parents who are both deployed in Afghanistan. Bailee is a wonderful, positive actress with a warm, heartfelt manner that brings the story to life. Pat Boone depicting Dusty’s grandfather adds a strong basis for faith and hope for things to turn out for the best. It’s an inspiring, feel-good movie that honors our soldiers while sharing a story of how horses brought a group of teens together. It’s a movie you’ll want to see.
