Where the Red Fern Grows

[flamepony12]

I finished it today, I wish I hadn't finished it in class, I was choking back tears at the end! :( I was just wondering if anyone else has read it? I really enjoyed it! :D

[flamepony12]

Give it a little time, sometimes it takes longer than 10 minutes to get a response.

I read the book when I was in grade school and I loved it. It was one of my favorite books when I was a kid. I haven't read it in years, but I wouldn't mind reading it again.

Actually there are 2 movies I think.....

I was looking at those amazon links and saw this review for the first movie. I don't know why but I just thought it was the funniest thing I'd read in a while.

"The book was awesome. I read it two years ago in 5th grad. Then my teacher had us watch the movie. It was ok. The book was way better. The movie was ok though. Not very good at all. It's worth watching if you wanted to escape 2 hours of class! "

LOL!

I read it in school 3 times and bawled my eyes out EVERY time. They made us watch the movie in 6th grade and I seriously couldn't keep myself composed.

Oh gosh, I've read WTRFG twice, and gotten teary-eyed both times. I LOVE the book anyway, even if it is sad. I've seen the (a) movie, and it's DEFINITELY not as good!!!!:D But yea, I love that book...;)

[slleipnir]

That sounds soo farmilliar..but I don't remember so I have no idea lol

[Jods]

I love the book the movie isn't as good no... Know that you mention it I wanna read it again!!!

[cloverfdx]

I have never heard of it, i must look it up and see if i can get a copy of the book.

[Jods]

It's a tear jerker for animal lovers!!

[slleipnir]

I looked it up, I'm pretty sure I read it but I still don't remember much about it

[heinz57_79]

The book is one of my favourite books. I've probably read it a dozen times since 3rd grade, if not more. My copy is so worn and dog eared. hehe I saw the movie once in 4th grade and bawled my eyes out. Then recently I saw they had it at WalMart for something like $5 so i went ahead and picked it up. Haven't watched it yet, tho. ;)

DEFINITELY!:)

I read it and saw the movie, and, loved both. I believe there at least was a second movie made, but, I can't remember for sure. I have no idea if a second book was written, though. The author also wrote Summer of the Monkeys, which is good. I think I remember seeing one or two movies from that one, too. Good stuff. Old Dan and Little Ann....awww.....

[rizzy]

I loved that book!! It was really sad though, I cant remember if I cried. My teacher read it to us when I was in 5th grade! We watched the movie too, but i cant remember the movie very well.

[chrissycat21]

I read that book two or three years ago. I finished it in school, too and had teachers and other people there asking me if I was ok since I was crying!

[joanofark]

I've heard of it, but I never read it. Can someone tell me what its about?:) ;)

[Twisterdog]

It just bawl when I read that. In fact, just hearing about it will make me cry.
:(
