Woody's Words [Libby Audiobook] : Woodrow Wilson Rawls and Where the Red Fern Grows. Recorded Books, Inc., 2025. Format: OverDrive OverDrive Listen, Filesize: 7354kB. HTML:The life of Woodrow "Woody" Wilson Rawls, the author of the children's classic Where the Red Fern Grows, is revealed in this nonfiction book for ages 7–10 that celebrates persistence, creativity, and chasing dreams. When Woody Rawls read The Call of the Wild, a classic novel about a stolen mistreated dog and a kindly man, his life was forever changed. Maybe it was because he loved his own dog, or maybe it was because the story reached deep into his heart and stayed there. From then on, Woody was determined to learn to write and become a teller of tales. Woody didn't care that he couldn't afford pen and paper. He would use a stick in the sand if he had to. Woody trusted his heart and used his imagination to create his stories, which he shared with Rowdy, his trusty hound. Woody never stopped writing even when it was hard to and when life got in the way. He went on to write several novels and publish two books for children—including the timeless classic Where the Red Fern Grows. This story of hard work creatively presented by author Lisa Rogers will resonate with young readers and adults alike. "A poignant tribute to the power of story."—Kirkus Reviews.
