This is a great story, most appreciated by a child if it is read aloud and shared. However, an adult looking for a quick, good read, will also appreciate this timeless story. This is a bittersweet tale and makes you feel good.

This is a really fun book very well written. Great for boys, but my girls enjoyed it too. The bad guy meets his match in the loveable Brighty. President Teddy Roosevelt even shows up to hunt mountain lions. Great read aloud.

This classic is as entertaining as always - for both children and adults. I first read it after riding down the Grand Canyon trail on a mule, and it was doubly exciting. Story: A lone little burro jack learns to cope with his own kind, humans, hunters, other animals and even Teddy Roosevelt. A good read-aloud book

A very sad and touching story, but a great book

A fictional story about a great place - the Grand Canyon, and a real burro who lived there. A nice book for upper elementary kids.
