But, hunting hounds are expensive and his family is not able to afford them.

He loves dogs and he wants two hunting hounds. This boy, Billy, lives near the Oklahama Ozarks, works with his father in his farm and learns reading, writing and arithmetic from his mother. ‘Where the Red Fern Grows’ is about a boy and his two dogs. An exciting tale of love and adventure you’ll never forget. And close by was the strange and wonderful power that’s only found…where the red fern grows. Glory and victory were coming to them, but sadness waited too. Old Dan had the brawn, Little Ann had the brains – and Billy had the will to train them to be the finest hunting team in the valley. I am giving below the summary of the story as given in the back cover of the book.īilly, Old Dan and Little Ann – a boy and his two dogs…A loving threesome, they ranged the dark hills and river bottoms of Cherokee country. I finished reading it yesterday and here is the review. (You can guess by now that my library stocks only popular bestsellers – if you want to get Harry Potter books or the Twilight Series or books by Agatha Christie and Jeffrey Archer and thrillers by Robert Ludlum, this is the place!) I grabbed it immediately and went to a cafe and started reading it. When I was browsing through the children’s literature section, out from deep inside the bookshelf, ‘When the Red Fern Grows’ leapt at me! I couldn’t believe it, because I don’t remember the last time I made a surprise discovery in this library. Then I thought I will do some random browsing in the library. One day I had gone to the library to return books which were lying with me for months. It was not available in any of the bookstores here (no surprise – it always happens when I search for a specific book). I haven’t heard of the book or of the author before and so I thought I will search for it.

I discovered ‘Where the Red Fern Grows’ by Wilson Rawls through fellow blogger Natalya, who said that it was one of her favourite books.
