Sample Précis Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls The story takes place on a little farm in the Ozark Mountains during the depression. Billy, a 10-year-old boy, and his dogs Little Ann and Old Dan, are the main characters. The conflict arises when Billy trains his dogs to be “coon” hunters. First, Billy must gain the trust of his dogs by falling an ancient tree that contains a trapped raccoon. Later, Billy receives a challenge from quarreling neighbors, enters a regional coon-hunting championship, and earns local fame because of his dogs’ extraordinary skill. The story ends when a mountain lion kills one dog and the other dies of a broken heart. I thoroughly enjoyed this novel because I love my own dog, and because it told of Billy’s adventures and triumphs.
