A comprehensive study guide offering in-depth explanation, essay, and test prep for Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings’ The Yearling, a 1938 Pulitzer Prize winner. As an expositional novel of the 1930s, Rawlings wrote of the Florida Crackers, wildlife, and vegetation of the region in such minute detail that readers become intimately acquainted not only with the people of the region and their customs and way of life, but with the physical and natural surroundings. Moreover, she shows in the manner of a reporter how to remain objective and detached, making no real judgment on the people. This Bright Notes Study Guide explores the context and history of Rawlings’ classic work, helping students to thoroughly explore the reasons it has stood the literary test of time. Each Bright Notes Study Guide contains: - Introductions to the Author and the Work - Character Summaries - Plot Guides - Section and Chapter Overviews - Test Essay and Study Q&As The Bright Notes Study Guide series offers an in-depth tour of more than 275 classic works of literature, exploring characters, critical commentary, historical background, plots, and themes. This set of study guides encourages readers to dig deeper in their understanding by including essay questions and answers as well as topics for further research.

Jody Baxter, his father, Penny, and his mother, Ora, live on an island of high good land surrounded by the Florida scrub. It is a meager existence, often filled with hardship, but the Baxters get by on what they have. Jody and his father have a special relationship, sharing a common love of nature and the simple pleasures of life. Penny is indulgent, allowing Jody to "kick up his heels" while he can. "The day'll come," Penny thinks, "he'll not even care to." In contrast to the quiet, peaceful lives of the Baxters, their nearest neighbors, the Forresters, are loud, argumentative, and prone to being troublemakers. Jody finds their zest for life and their free and easy ways appealing. But relations between the Baxters and the Forresters are strained when Penny and Jody intervene in a fight between Lem Forrester and Oliver Hutto, a friend of the family. When their hogs go missing, they go on a hunt where Penny is bitten by a rattlesnake and nearly dies. While recovering, he allows Jody to adopt a fawn who becomes Jody's constant companion. Floods, failing crops, and dying animals all contribute to hungry wolves and even a marauding black bear prowling the area. Tragedy strikes as the Forresters seek revenge on Oliver Hutto, and the rift between the Baxters and the Forresters widens. In the spring planting, Penny is hurt, and Jody must be the man of the family. Flag, his yearling deer, is now destroying the new crops as fast as they grow. The struggle Jody must go through as he first fights what his father tells him must happen, and when Jody realizes it himself, is poignant. The Yearling is a story about that special relationship between a father and a son, examining that year in the life of an adolescent who is "betwixt and between," no longer a boy, but not yet a man. Filled with struggles, moments of sheer fun, and family closeness, this is a wonderful story. Setting: Florida, 1800s American Literature Pgs: 68 13 sections including pre-reading activities and summary section.

Jody Baxter, his father, Penny, and his mother, Ora, live on an island of high, good land surrounded by the Florida scrub. It is a meager existence, often filled with hardship, but the Baxters get by on what they have. Jody and his father have a special relationship, sharing a common love of nature and the simple pleasures of life. Penny is indulgent, allowing Jody to "kick up his heels" while he can. "The day'll come," Penny thinks, "he'll not even care to." In contrast to the quiet, peaceful lives of the Baxters, their nearest neighbors, the Forresters, are loud, argumentative, and prone to being troublemakers. Jody finds their zest for life and their free and easy ways appealing. But relations between the Baxters and the Forresters are strained when Penny and Jody intervene in a fight between Lem Forrester and Oliver Hutto, a friend of the family. When the Baxters' hogs are missing, Penny and Jody venture into the scrub to search for them, suspecting that the Forresters are responsible. On the hunt Penny is bitten by a rattlesnake and nearly dies. While he is recovering from the snake bite, Penny allows Jody to take in a motherless fawn and raise it as a pet. Ora protests, but concedes to Penny. Jody names the fawn Flag, and the deer becomes Jody's constant companion. Flag also becomes a main source of joy for Jody when hardship strikes. A long storm floods the scrub, killing much of the wildlife and destroying the Baxter's crops. The animals that don't die from the flood are soon taken by a plague. As a result, hungry wolves prowl the scrub and kill the Baxter's heifer calf. Jody and Penny team up with the Forresters to rid the scrub of the menace of the wolves. During a successful hunt, the party comes upon a group of bear cubs. Thinking quickly, Penny arranges that the cubs be captured live and sold. The money from the resulting sale, and the birth of a new heifer calf, promise a joyful Christmas for the family. The Baxters make plans to go to Volusia for a community Christmas celebration and stay with the Huttos. But disaster strikes once again. Old Slewfoot, a marauding black bear, returns to the Baxter farm and kills the new calf. Penny becomes obsessed with killing the bear. Penny and Jody, caught up in the hunt, almost miss the celebration, and arrive in Volusia on Christmas Eve. But the celebration at Volusia turns to horror when the Forresters seek revenge on Oliver Hutto. The rift between the Baxters and the Forresters widens. In the spring, during planting, Penny strains himself removing a stump. He is bedridden, and Jody must take over much of the work. But Flag, now nearly grown, begins eating the young green shoots as fast as they appear. Jody tries in vain to keep the deer from the crops, but Penny recognizes what must be done if the family is to have any crops at all in the coming year. It is then that Jody feels betrayed by his father. However, as things do not improve, Jody sees what he has to do. The Yearling is a story about a special relationship between a father and a son, covering a year in the life of an adolescent who is "betwixt and between," no longer a boy, but not yet a man.

For animal lovers and fans of The One and Only Ivan and Hoot, this is the uplifting story of a girl who discovers a family of panthers that were thought to be extinct, and her journey to save the species. Eleven-year-old Kiri has a secret: wild things call to her. More than anyone else, she’s always had a special connection to animals. But when Kiri has an encounter with the last known Florida panther, her life is quickly turned on end. Caught between her conservationist father, who wants to send the panther to a zoo, and the village poachers, who want to sell it to feed their families, Kiri must embark on a journey that will take her deep into the wilderness. There has to be some way to save the panther, and for her dad and the villagers to understand each other. If Kiri can’t figure out what it is, she’ll lose far more than the panthers—she’ll lose the only home she’s ever known, and the only family she has left. 2018 Green Earth Book Award Honor 2018 Colorado Book Award Winner CAL Book Award Winner Green Prize for Sustainable Literature Award Winner A Bank Street "Best Children's Book of the Year" A National Geographic Giant Traveling Map of Florida Selection "A powerful tale of a future to be avoided." —Kirkus Reviews "An eerie cautionary tale about the dangers of not protecting the environment, tackles an important theme in a compelling way...a fantastical tale with roots in real-world issues." —Booklist "Earnest, heartfelt, and passionate, this book will likely inspire new environmentalists." —Bulletin "A boldly original, profoundly wise, deeply moving book.
