Billy, Old Dan, and Little Ann - a boy and his two dogs...

A loving threesome, they ranged the dark hills and river bottoms of Cherokee County. Old Dan had the brawn, Little Ann had the brains - and Billy had the will to train them to be the finest hunting team in the valley. Glory and victory were coming to them, but sadness waited too and close by was the strange and wonderful power that's only found...

Where the Red Fern Grows
An exciting tale of love and adventure you'll never forget.
