" Brilliant. This is absolutely my favorite book and it has been ever since I read it for the first time several years ago. By the way, I'm in high school! I love the realism of the dialect and the whimsical nature of the plot. My family and I have been visiting Branson, Missouri since before I was born and this book captures the true essence of what the Ozarks are--not a gaudy tourist trap, but a beautiful landscape rich with character and history. I've read this book three times and will definitely be reading it again and again. I plan to read this book to my children in the future. "

" It was written in the early 1900's. The story line was based on fact so that was interesting. He wrote in the language of the area, the Ozarks, so that was difficult to decipher at times. I guess anyone who lives in the Ozarks should read it, but the general public probably wouldn't find it so interesting. "
