Comment On Appertaining To Books Stone Fox

Don, Celeste, and I cried like babies when we read this together, many years ago. We still remember Stone Fox as one our fondest reading memories. Go, Searchlight, go!

Very sweet -- bring tissues to this read!

Note, Dec. 6, 2019: I edited this just now to correct a minor typo.My oldest grandson Philip (age 10, the same age as Willy, the protagonist of this very short kid's chapter book) is an avid reader who reads above grade level, an interest I obviously encourage. He recently read this book himself, and was excited about it enough to want to share his copy so I could read it too. Being about to be between books anyway, and being interested in connecting with him in a shared reading experience, I

OH MY GOODNESS!! I just finished reading this book, as it was the one of two books my husband read in grade school. I had never heard of it and I can see why.....such a sad book!! Your grandfather just "gives up" on life??? And what happened to poor Little Willy's parents in the first place?? He has the strain of working the farm by himself (at the age of ten!) and then he uses his college money to enter a race that he might loose because of Stone Fox, a Shoshone Indian who has never lost a

Though I finished it days ago, this story is still growing on me. While I read it aloud to my class, I had a lot of doubts. The writing is fine, but I was not thrilled with the storys glumness. I dont oppose that, on principle, or in general, but it just did not seem to have a point. There were also details that did not float my boat or got stuck in my craw. For example, I was confused by the grandfathers condition, very confused, and still am.However, the stunned silence of the children at the

At first, I thought this will be just another little sweet and happy ending story, which is all time Americans' favorite (like all the Disney stories). But as I read through, I was in such a shock I couldn't even think straight. Poor little Willy and Searchlight going through the toughest time of their lives without anyone's help was just pitiful enough. But the most shockingly, when searchlight's heart just bursted and died instantly right before finishing his race, my brain felt like it

Very sad! Spoiler Alert!!The main character is a ten-year-old boy named Billy who owns a very nice dog named Stella. Billy lives with his grandfather. Life is good until his grandfather falls seriously ill. This man came to the door after the grandpa has been sick for a while. He says that the grandpa hasn't been paying his taxes so he'll have to take grandpa's farm away. Billy, unwilling to let the farm be taken away and himself thrust into an orphanage, enters him and his dog into this dog
