The Devil in Ol' Rosie was a very interesting book that I have read. Some of the parts were very sudden. I couldn't
stand to put the book down. It was about a boy who lived on a farm. He was poor so he couldn't afford anything. His parents were gone because his mom was going to have a newborn. While his parents were gone Ol'rosie (a horse his father owns) let all the other horses out by kicking down the fence and jumping over the barb wire. John tried to follow
the horses with a horse named Gypsy, and this is when the whole trouble begins. By the way, even though the boy's name is John his father calls him Wart. His father calls him Wart because his father thinks he's no use for anything but when John tells his father about what happened he won't think he's no good.

    The Devil in Ol' Rosie was a good book. I would definitely recommend it to a friend.
