Summary: 5 Stars
Stone Fox is a great book! It is kind of funny, but kind of depressing. My favorite part is when Dusty, the town drunk said "Was Denver, Stone Fox snapped a mans backwith 2 fingers. The book is much different than the movie. Though they're both good. The book took place in Jackson, Wyoming. Well, it's about a little boy that lives with his grandfather and they own a farm. So litte Willy (the little boy) had to pay taxes for the farm. So he entered the dog sled race and little Willy had to keep up the farm. So when Clifford Snyder the tax man came, Willy didn't know about taxes. But if he didn't pay, the farm would be gone. So he entered the dog sled race with his dog, Searchlight. They tried to win the race against the greatest competitor,the Native American, Stone Fox.Book Review: A five star not too long read

Little Willy feels very confident in himself, but the great Stone Fox is coming. He has never lost a race. Does he beat the great Stone Fox? Does grandpa get better? Do they keep their farm? Use my advice and read the book to find out.Book Review: great book about life and death
Summary: 5 Stars
Stone Fox is more than an action packed adventure story, it is a story about a pre-adolescent boy trying to cope with and superceed lifes struggles. My seven year old read this story in one day, he was so eager to find out what happens. I too enjoyed it as a good read. Stone Fox teaches us the importance of caring for one another, the strong friendship that exists between children and their dog, and the importance of perseverance in life, and to not give up!! It is an easy read and so well written, your child may not even realize the lessons the book has to teach them in the process. As a parent I would recommend that you read the book as well so you are able to discuss the ending with your child, and focus on the positive side of the ending.Book Review: Stone Fox

Stone Fox by: John Reynolds Gardiner Has your grandpa ever needed your help?
Willy's grandpa did in the Stone Fox by John
Reynolds Gardiner. It is a very powerful book. It
will bring out the good and bad times. It is about a
little boy named Willy who lives with his grandpa
and his dog Searchlight, but when Willy finds his
grandpa in his bed everything changes. I would
recommend this book to people who have a heart
of gold and love to help others. If you think racing
for your life is exciting then race over to your
nearest bookstore and pick up the Stone Fox. I
learned that if you love someone and they're in
danger you can help them.
