A loving threesome, they ranged the dark hills and river bottoms of Cherokee country. Old Dan had the brawn. Little Ann had the brains, and Billy had the will to make them into the finest hunting team in the valley. Glory and victory were coming to them, but sadness waited too. Where the Red Fern Grows is an exciting tale of love and adventure you'll never forget.
From the Paperback edition.
Wilson Rawls grew up on a small farm in the Ozark Mountains of Oklahoma. There were no schools where he lived so his mother taught Rawls and his sisters how to read and write. He says that reading the book The Call of the Wild changed his life and gave him the notion that he would like to grow up to write a book like it. He shared his dream with his father, and his father gave him the encouraging advice, "Son, a man can do anything he sets out to do, if he doesn't give up." Rawls never forgot his father's words, and went on to create two novels about his boyhood that have become modern classics.

Red Fern audio
Anthony Heald does a wonderful job reading the story. I teach sixth grade students and they have no problem understanding the audio. They love his voices. The book is a long read. If he read any slower it would take forever to finish the story! Billy, after all, is a young boy. Mama, obviously, is a woman. Those voices are not the easiest for a man to pull off! However, Heald does a terrific job. He reads the story like someone truly speaking it.

Disappointing
Anthony Heald reads this book likes he just drank 48 cups of coffee. He often blurs sentences together. I was using this book with my sixth grade students, and I had to stop. Heald makes Billy sound like a 6 year old cry-baby. When he reads the lines of Momma- it's just plain laughable. When will someone create a decent audio book of this great story?
