Rating: Summary: Must read Where the red Fern Grows Review: This is the greatest book anyone could ever read. If you're a dog lover this book would highly recomeneded by me. The adventure and love for a boy's dogs is very meaningful and has made a difference in my life.What he goes through every chapter for his dog's is a lot, but his dogs are always there to repay him. Between the smart, loving Little Ann, and heart hunting dog Old Dan, it's a book about loyalty and love for your partners and friends.
Rating: Summary: It's a great story if you HATE Raccoons and Mountain Lions Review: The story is well written and kept my interest. However, the insensitivity of the author to the plight of the raccoons and the mountain lion bothered me. I accept the need to kill wild animals for food, for self defense, and under certain circumstances for fur, but I find torture and murder of wild animals for sport or competition to be apalling. I realize that the boy in the story sold the raccoon skins, so they didn't go to waste. And the encounter with the mountain lion was not intentional, so the eventual killing was self defense. But his attitude towards the raccoons and mountain lion bothered me greatly. I much prefer the attitude expressed by native Americans in many books I have read in which they give thanks to and apologize to the spirit of the animal whose lives they take.
Rating: Summary: Go Red Fern Review: This novel was awesome. It was so well written it kept me intertained the entire time. I highly recommend you read it.

Rating: Summary: The Red Fern Reviews Review: The Red Fern Grows is an adventurous tale that you'll never forget. This story shows love, loyalty, and compassion from the two dogs to the boy,Billy Coleman. If you read and liked Old Yeller, I think you will definitely enjoy this book. I like this book because the emotions shown are well done. This book will take you into the Ozarks,over the hills and into Billy's world just like it took me.
Rating: Summary: Where The Red Fern Shouldn't Grow by: sAnDiEmArZu Review: I didn't like this book because it was too old fashioned for me. It reminds me of the book called "Ol' Yeller". The main character, Billy, was a little too mushy. In every chapter he cried!! It was unbelievable!! In this book it said that he had a bad case of "puppy love". That's for sure! I also don't like this book because it has to do with hunting and I think that hunting is harsh and cruel.
Rating: Summary: Jenny's review on Where the Red Fern Grows Review: I think this book was ok because somethings were too detailed and his life was way to perfect.

Rating: Summary: Red Fern Rating Review: One of the things I liked about this book was its distinct detail. Sometimes the extreme detail was scary, but overall it helped bring the book to life. There was one thing, though, that I didn't like about this story. Everything was too perfect for Billy, the main character. He had to come to grip with his emotions.Despitre this fact, I loved the story. If you liked Old Yeller, you'll love this book. Read Where the Red Fern Grows, a heartwarming story about a boy and his dogs.

Rating: Summary: Where The Red Fern Grows Review: I think that the book, "Where the Red Fern Grows" by Wilson Rawls was a very moving book. I liked this book a lot. Billy is a boy who lives in the Ozark Mountains. He earned fifty dollars to buy two redbone hounds. This story tells about the adventures of Billy and his dogs since they were puppies all the way to when they were old. This book is a little bit like the book "Old Yeller." Read "Where the Red Fern Grows" to read about a bond between two dogs and a young man who learns how to become a man!
