emiged 's review for:

Stone Fox by John Reynolds Gardiner

2.0

---

Sad, heart-breaking little book! Don't want to spoil everything, but it starts out with a ten-year-old orphan having to run his grandfather's potato farm because the old man has lost the will to live and is laying semi-comatose on his bed. After a few successes, it ends...well, let's just say it's not an unqualified all-around win for everyone. Supposedly based on a Rocky Mountain legend, I'd be interested in finding out just how much is true...
