Summary: Favorite characters and scenes
Review: My favorite characters are Little Ann and Old Dan. Because they are the main charaecters. They are the best red bone hounds in the Ozarks. And the best coon hounds in the Ozarks also. Old Dan is the fast one and the killer. He has a muscular body and has a deep vioce.little Ann is the smartest most inteligant hound. She also has a wat of finding the coon where ever he is. She also knows every trick that the coon can pull. One night Old Dan and Lil Ann get in a fight with a Mountian Lion. Old Dan fought the Mountain Lion on a tree and killed it by throwing it off the tree and it landing on a tree branch that killed it. Old Dan was beet up and lived. both little Ann and Old Dan died of old age.

Summary: How lives can change....
Review: My dad read this book as a boy in the south and determined that he would live in the Ozarks. He managed that dream and I am a child of Billy's haunts. How could I not read a book that affected my life so directly? My question now is, How can anyone not read this book?

I tried reading it to my 9 yr old son and was unable to make it through the first chapter without a plethora of emotions overwhelming me. I ended up handing it over to him and having him read it on his own...I did not want my tears and my interpretations to influence his experience with this story. I watched his face as he read each night. I could see him experience the same things I experienced....the same things I'm certain my dad experienced as well. When he had finished it (it took him a few weeks...it is not light reading for a 9 yr old) he closed the book and sat and absorbed it for quite some time. That night...as I was putting him in bed he said, "Thanks, mom, for the best book of my life."

Adults and children alike should read this...not only will you read it, you will live it. Read it together, if you can. I cannot imagine going through my life without having experienced Billy and his dogs...and the legend of the red fern.

Summary: phenomenal book
Review: I first read this book when i was in sixth grade. It is a wonderful story of a boys love for his two dogs. It is also a coming of age story that everyone should read. It is one of the few books that truly brought tears to my eyes. You will find yourself in the story with the characters through the good times and bad. A great american classic that people of all ages should enjoy.

Summary: 38 yr. old still in love with this book 26 yrs later....
Review: I read it when I was 12. I read it out loud with a significant other when I was 21. And now, picking it up the other day and crying in the bookstore as I read the opening chapter, I just finished this book for the third time. Needless to say, I love it. Right up there with The Incredible Journey, The Black Stallion, and Mary O'Hara's Flicka/Thunderhead series. As well as James Herriot's unabridged dog stories.

Where the Red Fern Grows taught me about devotion, hard work, and dedication to your dogs. I still have dogs, now I have three and yes one is a big 98 lb. red hound. And I wonder looking back if that's why I picked him.

Just read this book. It has something to teach you about love, dedication, devotion, and being more than you started out as in the end. I'll never forget it. Ever.
