Resumen del Editor
Young Jody lives with his ma and pa on a farm in backwoods Florida. Life is hard there: cutting wood, planting fields, hauling water from a distant sinkhole. It is dangerous: wolves and bears roam the night. It’s also lonely for a young boy. One spring day, Jody’s pa kills a deer for meat. When Jody sees her spotted fawn in the brush, he convinces his father they should bring the fawn home. Thus begins a year when deer and boy are never far from each other. But the day will come when Jody must make a terrible choice between his beloved pet and his family’s survival.
The Yearling, published 50 years ago, is an enduring classic which won the Pulitzer Prize. As it follows Jody from childhood to the first steps of adulthood, it has touched the hearts of readers of all ages. Now, with Tom Stechschulte’s warm narration, this moving story will delight an even wider audience.

Historia
A Penguin Classic. First published in 1938, this volume of stories collected with the encouragement of his longtime editor Pascal Covici serves as a wonderful introduction to the work of Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck. Set in the beautiful Salinas Valley of California, where simple people farm the land and struggle to find a place for themselves in the world, these stories reflect Steinbeck’s characteristic interests: The tensions between town and country, laborers and owners, past and present.

Historia
Raised on a ranch in northern California, Jody is well-schooled in the hard work and demands of a rancher's life. He is used to the way of horses, too; but nothing has prepared him for the special connection he will forge with Gabilan, the hot-tempered pony his father gives him. With Billy Buck, the hired hand, Jody tends and trains his horse, restlessly anticipating the moment he will sit high upon Gabilan's saddle. But when Gabilan falls ill, Jody discovers there are still lessons he must learn about the ways of nature and, particularly, the ways of man.

Their deep and instant connection fueled a love affair and inspired plans to escape their owner, Master Wilson, who claimed Chloe as his concubine.

Acclaimed as the greatest novel ever written about the War Between the States, this searing Pulitzer Prize-winning book captures all the glory and shame of America's most tragic conflict in the vivid, crowded world of Andersonville, and the people who lived outside its barricades. Based on the author's extensive research and nearly 25 years in the making, MacKinlay Kantor's best-selling masterwork tells the heartbreaking story of the notorious Georgia prison where 50,000 Northern soldiers suffered.

Historia
Captains Courageous is Rudyard Kipling’s classic fable of a boy’s initiation into the fellowship of men, played out on the high seas of the late 1800s. When he falls overboard from a luxury liner, Harvey Cheyne, the spoiled son of an American millionaire, is rescued by a small New England fishing schooner. To earn his keep, Harvey must prove his worth in the only way the skipper and his hardy crew will accept: through the grueling mastery of a fisherman’s skills.

Historia
Jerry Renault ponders the question on the poster in his locker: Do I dare disturb the universe?

Gorgeous
Wonderful book, good story, some predictable elements, but the "twist" was unexpected. I expected a whole different reason for the "big decision." This was better. Warm, authentic and suitable for all ages, cultures and interests. Narrator very good. Recommended -- in fact, should be required reading for students of the human community. Tolerance, humor, survival, family, fathers and sons.... just great.

Top 5 Pulitzers
Must read for any age over 10. Great themes still apply today. Great dialogue and relatable characters. One of the few books set in the south during 1800s that does not contain offensive material. The narration was perfect. I could not stop listening.

Perfect for a drive through central Florida
While driving across the state of Florida, I happen to pawn the homestead of Rawlings and was immediately brought back to the age of 17 when I first read Cross Creek. My husband and I were fortunate to tag along on a private tour of the homestead, and I was immediately inspired to listen to her Pulitzer Prize winning The Yearling. The story is beautifully told, and was perfect for a long drive across the the marshland and swamps, the hammock and the rivers. I will say the narration was not always fantastic, but held my interest through to the very end. Thank you for giving this classic novel space inside audible.

Slow start but incredible
Now one of my all time favorites. My grandmother always recommended it, I only wish now I could talk to her about it. It is old Florida, nature and story telling at its finest.

Sad
I read this twice as a kid. I lobed it. But when I listened to it now as an adult I was and am struggling with depression. Not a good time to read this sort of stuff. Haunted me for weeks.

So much love in this story.
As someone who grew up in this area, I loved how I knew all the places in the book. I love how it was written with a love for the region as well as a love for innocence and life itself. Remarkable story, and I will never forget it.
