![]() ![]() ![]() The protagonist is young Jody, a 10-year-old boy. Each can stand alone, but they all follow the same characters living on a ranch in the Salinas Valley. The Red Pony is a novella comprised of four chapters that are each their own short story. Unfortunately, The Red Pony wasn’t a good introduction. Finally, I would have a chance to introduce one of my kids to a writer I love. So, when I saw The Red Pony by John Steinbeck as one of Cuddle Bug’s reading assignments, I was excited. I liked nearly all of the books that I read, except maybe Travels with Charley, though I think if I went back to read that as an adult, I would like it. My favorite was The Grapes of Wrath (and it’s still one of my favorite all-time books today). When I was in high school, I read as many John Steinbeck books as I could. ![]()
