Synopsis
Where the Red Fern Grows is a beloved classic that captures the powerful bond between man and man's best friend. This edition also includes a special note to readers from Newbery Medal winner and Printz Honor winner Clare Vanderpool. Billy has long dreamt of owning not one, but two, dogs. So when he's finally able to save up enough money for two pups to call his own--Old Dan and Little Ann--he's ecstatic. It doesn't matter that times are tough; together they'll roam the hills of the Ozarks. Soon Billy and his hounds become the finest hunting team in the valley. Stories of their great achievements spread throughout the region, and the combination of Old Dan's brawn, Little Ann's brains, and Billy's sheer will seems unbeatable. But tragedy awaits these determined hunters--now friends--and Billy learns that hope can grow out of despair, and that the seeds of the future can come from the scars of the past.

    Item arrived as stated in used but good condition. It was a great price for used. A new copy would have cost a lot more. It was shipped out fast and arrived in secure envelope. Seller did a great job with this entire transaction. I’m very happy with seller and would order from them again. Thank you seller, great job. A+. JL

    There was a mixup during packaging where a paperback copy was picked and shipped for a hard cover copy that was ordered. I asked the seller about it and they honestly replied that the mistake was on their end. A full refund for the item was sent immediately and I will not hesitate to order more from ZBK. Very responsive and they stand behind their items and make good on any issues.

    Super Fast Shipping! Other than a little sticker damage the book was as described, new and pristine. Triple A plus! Given the opportunity I will buy again. *** Buyers on eBay; the seller should not be held responsible for USPS issues. Lately they've been slow as heck, and irresponsible. *** I ordered something and it took 21 day to arrive, when I received the item was missing and I got half a box.

  • wondsrful story!

    One of the most enjoyable books I have read in a long time. A very nice Almish gentleman told me about the book. I'm glad I listened to him! As I neared the end of the book, I wished it would go on longer.

  • An American classic

    Great work of literature and a story that will move you to laugh and cry. Too much for my elementary students as the book is much more intense and graphic than either one of the movies made about the book.
