Where the Red Fern Grows
| Book Talk: A ten year old country boy has this thing about hunting. He waits years earning enough to buy his own coon dogs. All the while, he is listening to Grandpa's stories and tricks. His mom lets go as he spends nights catching coons with his dogs. We watch him learn the woods and we witness the lessons in fidelity that his dogs teach. An exciting conclusion is a hunting contest that pits the best dogs against human frailty and the harsh Ozark elements. (Booktalks Quick and Simple)
