The Newbery Honor Roll
Another timeless story by Jack Schaefer, author of the classic Shane , Old Ramon is about an unlikely friendship between an old shepherd and a young boy set in the Mojave Desert.
Old Ramon is as much part of the plains as a gnarled uniper, and wise as only years of experience can teach, He is a sheperd who has taken into his care a small boy who watches and learns from Ramon: about sheep, rattlesnakes, sandstorms, coyotes, and wolves.
