Rating: Summary: Where the Red Fern Grows Review: Where The Red Fern Grows Wilson Rawls Curtis Publishing, 1961, 249 pp., $6.50This book Where the Red Fern Grows is about a man in his early fifty's who has a flashback to his childhood after seeing a couple of dogs fight in the park. The memory starts out when Billy is eleven years old. Billy always wanted to have a pair of coonhounds, but his parents couldn't afford to buy the coonhounds. Billy's parents agreed to buy Billy a dog, but not the type of dog that Billy wanted. Instead, Billy got a loan from his grandfather to buy a couple of coonhounds. He saw an advertisement in an old fisherman's magazine. Billy worked hard to pay for the coonhounds and each time he made money he gave it to his grandfather. When Billy finally got the dogs, he trained them to hunt coons so he could get coons skins to sell. When I was reading this book Where the Red Fern Grows I didn't want to put it down. The more I read the more interesting the book gets and I hate to put it down. I like this book because Billy really wanted something and he didn't just wait for somebody to give it to him. Billy worked hard and got what he wanted. I can relate to Billy because if I wanted a dog as badly as he did, I would have done the same exact thing Billy did. Just like Billy, I wanted something so badly so I got a loan from my father and paid him back the money by working hard, doing different types of jobs such as painting, cleaning, and working as a mechanic at a bicycle shop. If you were Billy would you have done what Billy did? I highly recommend this book to anyone who anyone over the age of ten years old. This book is perfect for anybody who likes adventures or just likes to learn from other people's mistakes. If you like realistic fiction, Where the Red Fern Grows is a must. ~...

Rating: Summary: A book for dog lovers Review: I love this book because.... It is a fabulous book for dog lovers. It is very sad at times. I even started to cry at the end but it is just a wonderful book. When my 5th grade teacher read it to my class everyone enjoyed it. It teaches you to never give up when you are trying to teach a dog something. It is very descriptive about everything. Where the Red Fern Grows is one of the best books I've read.
Rating: Summary: Fantastic Book Review: It's been a while since I've read this book, but I can remember it enough to know that it ranks among the best books I've ever read. Throughout the story, the author brings you so close the characters it's as if you were really there with them. It made me cry, and any book that can stir enough emotion to do that automatically gets five stars.
Rating: Summary: A Story About A Boy and Two Hounds. Review: In fifth grade we have something called read aloud, where the teacher reads a book to us. So, this book was one of them.

Rating: Summary: This book is one of the most greatest books I ever read. Review: I was told to read the first chapter of this book for homework. And I did NOT want to read it at all or even touch it. But, some point during that evening, I decided to finally read. When I was finished with the first chapter, I could not let the book go at all. I was sucked in completely, and the next day at school, I couldn't wait for my teacher to assign us to read the second chapter for hw. As I read the chapters, I got excited and was always determined to finish the book. Where the Red Fern Grows is a very good book. I recommend many of you to read it.
Rating: Summary: Still My All Time Favorite. Review: I first read this heart warming book when I was in the fourth grade. While visiting our local library with my husband I was compelled to look for it. I found it and the cover alone brought memories flooding back, I had to have it. After reading chapter after chapter, I kept saying to my husband "This is such a great book..." I knew the story well, yet every event still captured something I cannot describe in words. Even though I knew it was coming, the death of the two wonderful dogs broke my heart and jerked tears from my eyes. It is still the only book that warms my heart the way a dog can in a young child's arms. I 100% guarantee you'll love this book.
