Product Description:

Category Description for Little Britches Series:

Often touted as the "Little House for Boys," these books tell the story of author Ralph Moody, beginning as a young boy on a Colorado ranch in the early 1900's.

These books make absorbing read-alouds for younger children, too. Be aware, however, that there is some inappropriate language used - no doubt in keeping with the actual verbiage of rugged cowboys and characters of the time.

  • Book 1: Little Britches
  • Book 2: Man of the Family
  • Book 3: The Home Ranch
  • Book 4: Mary Emma & Company
  • Book 5: The Fields of Home
  • Book 6: Shaking the Nickel Bush
  • Book 7: The Dry Divide
  • Book 8: Horse of a Different Color

This series keeps the attention of my 8th grade son and me for a read aloud. (It is not easy to get an 8th grade boy to read aloud- we alternate reading. But it helps him a great deal with reading comprehension and other areas of language struggle to read one over the school year.) The books are very exciting, and they are true. We have read the whole series up to this over the last couple years, and he is requesting the next one, and I am wanting to know what will happen too.

Loving it!
My husband is reading through this series with the children. While he does edit the cowboy language, it's been a great read-aloud for dad time!
