What is the saddest book you have ever read?

twilight021 @twilight021 (2059) • United States 6 Mar 07

When I was in the 6th grade, we had to read "Where the Red Fern Grows". Without giving away too much of the plot, it's about a boy and his dogs growing-up together. It's a lovely story...but if you are someone who is sensitive...

Childrenx4 Where the Red Fern Grows is a tear jerker all right, but the one that gets me everytime is "Message in a Bottle." My husband bought it for me thinking I would like it, well I did, but I couldn't stop crying. He hasn't bought me a book since.

Childrenx4 Magic eraser might work, if the marker was alcohol based than try something that has alcohol in it to clean. A rubbing alcohol might work, but it might also take the finish off your floor. Check with a specialty store that sells hardwood floors, I know they...

Childrenx4 the pine cone suggestion is a good one. Any type of mulch that is rough on the feet of any animal will keep animals out, so I am told. I also know there are plants you can plant around the perimeter of any garden to keep animals out, but sorry I don't know...
