I'd give this book 1,000 stars

My second grade teacher read this to me, and the world would be a better place if everyone had values like the Moody's. Ralph's father showed true character to his son. I'm in the eighth grade now and have already read this book at least 5 times and I will be sure to read it many more. I reccomend this book to anyone, and when I have kids, I will be sure to read it to them

A Greatly Satisfying Read

Ralph Moody's account of his boyhood days in Littleton, Colorado is an inspiring story of courage and pluck. Ralph, aka as Little Britches, has some hard lessons to learn, but is given quite a bit of freedom to do so by his father. The elder Moody is the quintessential father everyone wishes they had. Together they make an unbeatable team. This is the first in a series of seven books. I highly recommend them all.

A Wonderful Book For Families To Read Together

I read this book after my 9-year old finished it for school. The lessons and values that Ralph Moody learned growing up are so good and true-even if sometimes they were learned the hard way. Mr. Moody's book teaches wonderful values like responsibility, respect, honesty, hard work, and committment and support of the family. The part I liked best was the relationship that Ralph had with his father. This world would be a much brighter place to live in if every son had a father like Ralph's. I think a dad reading this to his kids would teach lessons they all would remember.

Terrfic for All Ages

You really get the feel of Ralph Moody's childhood through his writing. He hadn't lost his perspective as he grew older (and possibly wiser) through the years. Perfect for children of all ages (perhaps especially us older children).

Adults - please read this to every kid in your life!!!

My 6th grade teacher read this book aloud, and I couldn't wait to start reading it to my own students someday. I can't think of a better book for teaching core values and strength of character that doesn't preach, (not to mention Colorado state history and autobiography for you teachers out there). You will laugh & cry through all the trials of family survival out west and the timeless tribulations of growing up and being the new kid at school.

I read this to all my fourth grade classes, making sure that the last reading had absolutely no absences from dental appts etc. and every year it was voted by my students as the best loved read aloud of the year.

This is one of those rare true stories that will help your family/class bond together and which you'll want to read over and over. My wish is that every teacher/parent will share this gem with their kids. It truly is a classic - enjoy!
