Where the Red Fern Grows

Summary: emotionally gripping from generation to generation
Review: My nine-year-old daughter recently read this book and loved it, although she thought it was sad and brought her to tears. I shared with her how I, too, had read it when I was in eighth grade. I often read on the hour-long bus ride to and from school. As I was nearing the end of this wonderful book, still a ways from home, I had to grudgingly put it away, for fear that I would cry aloud on the bus! When I got home, I found a quiet abandoned room and finished the book, crying through the entire ending. I remember everything about my surroundings that day as I finished this heart-wrenching story, just as one remembers other events that evoke strong emotions. It's a book that you'll never forget and will want a copy of for your personal library, even if your child has already read it in school, as mine has.

Summary: Where the Red Fern Grows
Review: This is an absolutely WONDERFUL story. Just to give you a perspective on how great this book is, even if it was $100.00 I would still buy it! This is a great book for everyone, adults and kids alike. It's an exciting story of a boy named Billy, who grows up with dog-wanting fever. He finally gets two wonderful coon hounds, and names them Little Ann (who is the brains), and Old Dan (who is the brawn). The pups love each other and can't bear to be apart. They soon grow to have a reputation of being the best hunters, and win a gold cup in the coon-hunting championships. Soon after, the dogs and Billy have an encounter with a mountain lion ... This is a wonderful book, and even though I have summerized it, there is much more to it, it even made me cry. Please buy it and see for yourself.
