Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls

4.0

I listened to this book on CD and didn’t love the reader’s voice. Sometimes I found the story boring. At least twice I was shocked and horrified by descriptions of violence and gore.

Still, this book was amazing. The overarching lesson that LOVE is what the world needs is so beautiful. My heart was touched by the love Billy had for his dogs and his family. And those dogs sure loved Billy. And hunting, of course.

I read about the author and was even more impressed with the writing.
