Here's my review of it: http://goodbooksforyoungsouls.blogspot.com/2012/02/boy-and-his-grandpa-engage-in-some.htmlWendyLady@GoodBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07884742120430546504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4381738546785592812.post-82384554787364583452013-01-09T17:42:14.411-08:002013-01-09T17:42:14.411-08:00I'm reading this to my older two children, age...I'm reading this to my older two children, ages 8 (girl who loves horses) and 6 (boy). It reminds us of Farmer Boy but we all agree that we like Little Britches better! I couldn't wait and I skipped to the end and read ahead and I did cry. I told my local librarians about the book. Besides the rich content, I like how the chapters are a great length for nightly reading. It is a true treasure, thank you so much!! - Alexandra GonzalezAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4381738546785592812.post-20975637520527649162011-10-17T10:32:44.362-07:002011-10-17T10:32:44.362-07:00Me too - I'm sad I missed out reading them alo...Me too - I'm sad I missed out reading them aloud to my kids.

They're well-written, but they're also just plain good (as in, making me want to be a better person).<br /><br />I wish I'd heard of them earlier!magdahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07869042484263319553noreply@blogger.com
