Rendition In Pursuance Of Books The Home Ranch (Little Britches #3)

Ralph Moody turns again to Colorado, the scene of those two delightful earlier books about his boyhood, Little Britches and Man of the Family.
This is an extension of Mr. Moody's recollections of his twelfth year, and fits withing the framework of Man of the Family between chapters 25 and 26.

The Home Ranch has all the warm and wonderful ingredients which made his first two books such universal favorites with readers of all ages. The book teems with exciting and poignant incidents and with memorable characters, most of them good, kindly, generous people--though there is a villain. Mr. Moody is at his best in picturing a young boy's struggles with economic and other adversities, and having lived through them himself, he writes with such convincing honesty that the reader knows that this is the way things were.

Highly recommended for all readers from nine to ninety.

August 2016:I appreciated it much more this time. October 2014:While I hated the fact that Man of the Family ended in the middle of a crisis and that this was the next book in the series (and it goes backward in time to the last 1/3rd of Man of the Family) the book itself is part of Ralph Moody's fascinating and moral childhood. I was as impressed with this book as I was with the first or second. I think that Mary Emma and Company is probably the very best of the series (closely followed by The

I'm on a roll...so continued with number 3...I never did decide whether or not I had already read it. Although the novelty has worn off a bit, Moody still brings his youth to life and relates, in a most charming way, the difficulties of a 12-year-old, weighing 75 lbs. and doing the work of an adult cow hand.

Little Britches' adventures working a summer job at Batchlett's ranch.

I do enjoy seeing things from Little Britches point of view. Some of the phrases make me laugh out loud. I can see a young man with the desire to make his parents proud at every turn and feeling real shame when he doesn't measure up. It is a real shame that our youth of today do not have these qualities. What a better place the world would be if we all had principles to live by like they did then.My wish is that every family would read these books together and discuss them. There is no

Another great installment! This kid had a fascinating life! This one focuses on the summer he worked as a cowhand away at a ranch, for a cattle trader. I think he was 12 years old, among all these older cowhands, and he really held his own! He went through some pretty scary moments-getting lost and almost starving to death, stuck in a dust storm, flash flood, witnessing a pretty bad brawl, and then riding all night for 70 miles, part of it on his own, in search of his employer. What 12-year-old

I am working through this series in audio with the Cameron Bierlie recordings. I really wanted to skip this one and get on to New England with Mary Emma and Company but once I adjusted my attitude I loved hearing about Ralph's summer at the home ranch. These are expertly told stories. Virtue is illustrated in all its glory and humility without ever once watching itself in the mirror.

I adore this series. They are well written, and I am in awe of Mr. Moody's drive even as a small boy. I highly recommend these books.
