I really liked this book. My mom read it out loud to me. It was SO exciting except for the end that was sad. It's about a little boy in the past named Billy who saved his money for a long time to buy two hunting dogs and those dogs never gave up!
Old Dan, the bigger dog, died from a fight and Little Ann, the smaller dog, died of a broken heart. Old Dan would only eat after Little Ann got her share. They brought in more coon skins than other dogs. Like I said, they never gave up. That is why I think people should read it.

You mother read it to you bawling. I remember my 3rd grade teacher reading it to me. That sent me on the Old Yeller, Sam and any other dog book I could get my hands on. Apparently Wilson Rawls does not write / read. He dictated it to his wife!
Thanks for reviewing this book. I have not read it, but I saw the movie in 4th grade. All I remember is dogs, crying, and maybe some sniffling. I think I might need to read this one now!
