into life."—Chicago Sunday Tribune

is a true story, written in the first person, written without
sentimentality but with extraordinary drama."—Christian Science
Monitor
"A most appealing book . . . Its genuineness and its simplicity
will build up a large audience of enthusiastic readers."—San
Francisco Chronicle
"You will search long . . . To find a more disarming and refreshing
account of family life than Ralph Moody has set down in Little
Britches."—Chicago Sunday Tribune
"Enthusiastically recommended for young and old."—Library
Journal
"Ralph Moody’s books should be read aloud in every family circle in
America"—Sterling North
"The story of the Moody family is told without embellishment in a
simple, straight-forward style. It is especially suited for reading
aloud as a family. The difficulties Ralph faces, the mishaps and
consequences, will provoke quality discussions with middle
schoolers and older students, although children as young as third
grade will enjoy and benefit from the story."—Homeschooling Today
