Where The Red Fern Grows is a story about a boy named Billy who lives in the Ozark Mountains with his two redbone coon hunting hounds. Billy gives everything he has to his dogs. The dogs names are Little Ann and Old Dan. They are quite a pair! Little Ann is quick and cunning. No coon can outsmart her. Old Dan is tough and fearless. After Little Ann tracks down the coon, Old Dan is off for the final fight. Billy's grandpa counts and sells the coon hides for Billy. It's a real family affair. They enter a contest for the best hunting dogs. Will they win the golden cup and all of the prize money?
Be prepared for the emotional ups and downs!
