We absolutely love the Little Britches series!

We have listened to all 8 books of the series and loved just about every one! It's like Famer Boy by Wilder just expanded to 8 books with ranchers!

A surprise in every chapter.

This book brings to a close the Little Britches series and it did not disappoint. With every chapter you think things are going one way but the next chapter brings something new. An adventure for the whole family.

This book does a wonderful job of showing the struggles and integrity of the men and women that made this country what it is today… It makes my heart warm with adoration for them.

Ralph Moody does it again.

Another episode of hard work and intestinal fortitude set in the early nineteen hundreds. I enjoy reading stories from an earlier, simpler time.
