A most appealing book . . . Its genuineness and its simplicity will build up a large audience of enthusiastic readers.-San Francisco Chronicle Ralph Moody was eight years old in 1906 when his family moved from New Hampshire to a Colorado ranch. Through his eyes we experience the pleasures and perils of ranching there early in the twentieth century. Auctions and roundups, family picnics, irrigation wars, tornadoes and wind storms give authentic color to Little Britches. So do adventures, wonderfully told, that equip Ralph to take his father's place when it becomes necessary. Little Britches was the literary debut of Ralph Moody, who wrote about the adventures of his family in eight glorious books, all available as Bison Books.

We read this book and the rest of the series aloud as a family. I gave it to my son and daughter-in-law when they started their family. The regularly read aloud. She always asked for the next book in the series for Christmas gifts. Someone else compared this series to Little House series, only better, and I have always said that, too. I always recommend this series to people.

Good Book
I recently read this book for a school project. It was good eventhough it was a little below my reading level. I would recomend a middle school student to read it. Reading it made me learn what Colorado was like in the early 1900s.
