rtcullen 's review for:

Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls
4.0

So I'm in Tahlequah Oklahoma right now, and I hear there is a Red Fern festival next week, and I learn that it is based on this children's book from 50+ years ago. I probably read it as a child, but decided to reread to be ready for the festival!

Well, whenever I read a book featuring dogs, I just assume they'll be dead by the end.

Anyway, it's a nice story, with a lot of prayer driving the plot. That's all well and good until the family decides that God killed his dogs so the family did not have to be separated when they move to town. What the heck?
