Pete the Cat wants a supercool Sharkbot toy, but he doesn't have enough money in his piggy bank. He takes on odd jobs, from shoveling snow to selling lemonade and more, and saves every penny. How long will it take for him to earn enough money to buy the toy?

The story of Texas rancher Bick Benedict, his society wife, and three generations of their land-rich Texas sons and daughters as their family rivalry with cowboy and (later oil tycoon) Jett Rink unfolds across two generations. A monumental drama of family strife, racial bigotry, and conflict between cattle barons and newly-rich oil tycoons.
