When a novel like Huckleberry Finn, or The Yearling, comes along it defies customary adjectives because of the intensity of the respouse it evokes in the reader. Such a book, we submit, is Old Yeller; to read this eloquently simple story of a boy and his dog in the Texas hill country is an unforgettable and deeply moving experience.

When his father sets out on a cattle drive for the summer, fourteen-year-old Travis is left to take care of his family and their farm, and he faces new, unanticipated and often perilous responsibilities in the wilderness of early fronteir Texas. But Travis is not alone. He finds help and comfort in the courage and unwavering love of the stray animal who comes to be his most loyal and very best friend: the big yellow dog Travis calls "Old Yeller."

An enduring and award-winning American classic, Fred Gipson's Old Yeller stands as one of the most beloved novels ever produced in this country, and one that will live in the hearts and minds of readers for generations to come.

I had never read “Old Yeller” before, but wanted to. I decided to choose an audiobook because I wanted my sons to listen also and figured I couldn’t get through it without bawling. Well, I won’t regret that! The narrator was a perfect fit for this classic! He made came alive, along with the music added to it. We all enjoyed it very much! I will listen to it again.

This was a wonderful book for me and my eleven year old to listen to. We both enjoyed the narrator very much and the story was about a young man learning the difficulties of homesteading while his father is away. Heart wrenching.

Such a classic!

You know when you can’t wait for a spare minute to listen just a bit… and the writing and narration is so well done that it just pulls on your hearts strings. This is a must listen for adults and kids and I’m sure we’ll come back to it. Opened up many discussions with the children. I love this book!
