The Yearling by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings Summary and Reviews
Book Reviews of The YearlingBook Review: A touching storyThe Yearling is a great book with vived desciptions of Jody Baxter's life as a young boy. The book tells of Jodys colse relationship with his father, his hunts, and his closest friend, Flag. Jodys best companion throughout the story is a young deer, Flag. He finds Flag after a hunt when its mother was killed, and he raises it, mostly by sacrificing his own portions. The yearling is a great book, because it shows the human to human, and human to nature relationships with an up colse view. All the conversations were held in a backwoods, country slang talk. This makes the book a little harder to follow, but it adds color. I loved the book, and I recommend this book to anybody up for an exciting challenge!
