Rating: Summary: NL-S approved Review: A great book is Where the Red Fern Grows, by Wilson Rawls. It is a wonderful tale of a poor country boy who would do anything for a pair of hounds. Once he gets his dogs, the world is theirs to explore. From playing fetch to winning a raccoon hunt, these three share it all, even a courageous ending. I thought this book was really good because I could relate to the characters, especially Billy because I always wanted a dog. Like him, I had my mind set on a dog, and wouldn't quit trying until I got one. Page after page there are lessons to be learned, and a theme to go with each one. The five important themes I got out of it were: friends, responsibility, companionship, life, and family. Wilson Rawls wrote what every reader wanted to read. The book couldn't have been written any better. He used specific details, and gave a good feeling of what growing up in the Ozarks would have been like. It portrays the happiness and hardships that life brings. Young males and grown men would especially like this book because they can relate to Billy and his spirit of determination. This book is a great book and everybody should have the chance to read it.
Rating: Summary: Best book ever written... Review: I first read this book in seventh grade english class as classroom reading. The beginning of the book took a little while to get started and I was young and didn't like reading to begin with, but when I got into this book, it was like no other book that I have ever read. Even though we read the book in class, I finished it in two nights instead of watching tv (which is a big achivement for me). And when the end came with the emotions right behind it, a popular and self respecting seventh grader cried out loud in front of his whole class. There are not many books out there that can do that to me. When asked to write a one page book report on it, I turned in a report that was over seven pages. I now own the movie and the book, watching the movie once a month and reading the book every other. If you have not read this book yet, you have no idea what an experience you're missing.
Rating: Summary: PRETTY GOOD BUT TOO SAD!! Review: I read this book in fourth grade, and I cried! IF YOU LOVE ANIMALS, DON'T READ THIS BOOK! It I had a hard time finishing this book. I'm a sucker for sad books, though. Overall it was a pretty good book. Read Shiloh instead. At least it has a happier ending!
