Where the Red Fern Grows Book Report

was a very inspiring book and people can Relate to it!
Where the Red Fern Grows(1980s)
Wilson Rawls
Fiction

This book was a very good one and personally one of my most favorites. I like these kind of books where they all live in the country and have no relation to the city. This book starts out with the main character getting really into trapping raccoons and every little varmint running around their house. He soon decides that he wants to get dogs so that he can train them to hunt for coons. So he works really hard and works to get money so he can go to the city and buy the dogs. He finally gets enough money and brings home the dogs, they soon become master coon hunters and they start entering in coon hunting contests and winning. Later on worse comes to worse and they run into something that changes their lives forever.


As Billy realizes that all his hard work has been sucessful he starts to work hard in everything he does like work for his momma and for his papa. I think that was the main theme of the story and also the love that a young boy can share for his to best friends(his Dogs).


The authors style is very persuasive on giving you the direct message of the book. The narrator is just like most but also has very clear words for the story.


The intended audience is for ages 8-18 the words are pretty small but there is something like 213 pages in the book. But males would surely like it more than females because females tend to not like hunting as much. I would very much Recomend this book for everyone it is a classic for a reason.

"Where the Red Fern Grows is the heartwarming and adventurous tale for all ages about a young boy and his quest for his own red-bone hound hunting dogs" Norman Tokar. "Where the Red Fern GrowsUser Review - Cole - GoodreadsI gave this book 3 stars because I have seen the movie but it is pretty good. It is mostly about a kid named Billy who wants dogs and he gets them. I liked it when Billy got the dogs it was a good part. My favorite character is Billy".
