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

A loving threesome, they roamed 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 make them into the finest hunting team in the valley. Glory and victory were coming, but sadness waited too.

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