Has anyone ever read these books?

Question

a) The Barney Mystery series.

b) Where The Red Fern Grows?

c) The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

These are one of the few great books of my childhood. And just remembering the good old times too. If you ever read any of them what did you think?

Answer 1

I read Where the Red Fern Grows. It was one of my favorite books. I remember when the movie came out too. I was so excited to see it but although it was good, nothing is as good as the imagination when fueled by a good book.

Answer 2

I only read Jekyll & Hyde of this selection. It's an interesting book and a short one, so I've reread it when I didn't have much time. I was advanced. Mom said I read some at age 2.5 or so. At age 6, I read science books that 12 years olds could hardly comprehend. I had read much of Shakespeare, Homer, Aristotle, Plato, etc. at age 9. I didn't have time for the first two books you mention when I was doing such heavy reading as I just listed.

Answer 3

Where the Red Fern Grows is an amazing book. I teach in a one-room schoolhouse, so I generally have the same kids every year, and they still want me to read the book every year. Summer of the Monkeys is another good one that was written by Wilson Rawls.
