    Where the Red Fern Grows

    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!

    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.

    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! "

    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!!!! But yea, I love that book...


    Thanks Kay!!
