"This book was amazing. Ralph Moody shares so many of the timeless values that were taught to him by his father.
This book truly draws a distinction between the children and young adults of Ralph Moody's era and those of the current day.
It seems that today parents raise adult children, where in Ralph Moody's time parents raised young adults. By the age of 10 Ralph was well on his way to being a man of character. One that understood respponsibility and trust and the consequences of one's actions.
The book raises a number of questions about our current society, education system, value set, and the messages sent forth by the media.
This is a must read for anyone who wants to raise their children to become young men and women of character."

By Molly, Arena, WI

"This is the story of a few years in the author's childhood. He moved with his family from New Hampshire to Colorado when he was 8 in the hopes that the new climate would help improve his father's health. This is the tale of the next few years, establishing a homestead in the west.
This is also, and more importantly, the story of a beautiful father/son relationship and Ralph's metamorphosis from boy to man.
I loved this book. The love that Ralph Moody felt for his parents shines out from every page. This could almost serve as a handbook for good parenting.
I'm also a sucker for a story based in the wild west during the early days of the 20th century.
This is a fun, quick read."

"This is a biography about 9 year old Ralph and his family. His father gets sick working in the factory, and so the family buys some land in Colorado and decides to become ranchers. The book is from the perspective of Ralph, and how, as the oldest son, he helps his father out on the ranch.

I thought this was a cute story. More of a book for kids, but still enjoyable. Ralph learns some wonderful lessons about being honest, hard working, and educated from his father. And because of these themes it's a book you could feel good about reading to your kids because it is educational as well as entertaining. I thought the author did a good job of that.

I liked Ralph's determination to ride a horse and become a "cow poke" and I also really liked the way his father was as a parent. He seemed always to know when it was appropriate either to scold, or just talk, or punish, or spank. And I think you can really feel the closeness in the relationship between Ralph and his dad.

So if you are looking for a good book to read to your kids. I would definitly recommend this one."
