Dear Wilson Ralls

You have changed my life because I want a bloodhound so I can go coon hunting. My dad and I love to go hunting but I have never been coon hunting before. It sounds fun. If I do go coon hunting I will need to learn of all the barks from the dogs. I learned some of them from the book Where The Red Fern Grows. I also learned what to do if a coon go up a tree and you have to cut it down and you don’t get done cutting it down you can make a dummy and the coon will not come down. I hope you make another book like Where The Red Fern Grows except better because I really like that one.

Your Friend

P.S. did you really have two coon hounds.
