The Black Fawn
Jim Kjelgaard
A black fawn is a once-in-a-lifetime sight, and Bud Sloan needs exactly that kind of luck. Kjelgaard sets an orphan boy on a Pennsylvania farm where an old couple, long seasons, and one dark deer teach him what belonging costs and pays. Quiet, true, and deeply felt. His gentlest book; start here. Please note: this is the text of the story only. It has no pictures, so it is meant for a grown-up to read aloud rather than for a child to read alone. The illustrated experience of this story is the audiobook edition on Littletone.
