Horn Book Review

These handsome editions of two classic stories (Rawlings won a Pulitzer for The Yearling) are beautifully reissued with Wyeth's striking color plates. The heavy volumes may be best appreciated by collectors and fans of Wyeth's painterly illustrations.

Booklist Review

Gr. 5-8. Terribly lonely and isolated on a Florida farm, Jody is comforted by the companionship of an orphaned fawn. The taming of a wild animal and the farming of the land are convincingly and evocatively portrayed.
