Publisher's Summary:
New York Times best-selling author, Food Network star, and the Pioneer Woman herself, Ree Drummond brings us the first book in a brand-new series! In Ree's own words: "I was all grown up when I moved out to the country. When I first arrived, I felt so out of place! But eventually I looked around and discovered all the wonderful things about country life. So I decided to write a story about my experiences, as seen through the eyes of a little girl named Ree. Little Ree moves to the country and feels as scared and unsure as I was. But then she finds that if she sets her mind to it, being a country girl is a pretty cool thing. Come along on her adventures!"
Little Ree trades in her city days for a country way of life when she moves with her family to her grandparents' ranch. She's excited to ride horses, swim in the pond, and help Grandma cook for everyone. But on her first day, she finds that living on a ranch can be tough. She has to get up at the crack of dawn, learn to herd cows, and make sure her horse, Pepper, doesn't eat everything in sight. And that's all before breakfast! Will she ever get used to this new place? Luckily, the end of the day brings a big family barbecue...and the happy discovery that being a country girl isn't about the right pair of boots; it's all about the right attitude.
With warmth, humor, and stories inspired by life on the ranch, Ree Drummond's new book introduces us to a spunky new star and treats us to a special pancake recipe at the end!

New Adventures In The Country
For those of us who follow Ree Drummond, for her Food Cooking/baking shows on the Food Network, read her blogs and follow her life, her new book was exciting news. Ree has written a book about life as a child, Little Ree. Little Ree and her family are moving from the city to the country to live with grandma and grandpa. This could be Ree's story.
Little Ree looks at this move as a big adventure. And, from our insight into the grown up Ree, we know how upbeat and positive she is. The country is a big adventure, new animals, yucky little animal droppings on the ground, early morning hours, but all in all, this adventure is the most wonderful thing for Little Ree. Grandma wakes her up early to help with chores, and then help make breakfast. And, then, a big country bar be que with her family and cousins. This is a fast paced, fun time, and will appeal to most children. I particularly like the tone of the book, upbeat and positive. This sends such a good message to our children, and to their adults.
The storyline is fun and it is appealing to most everyone. The illustrations by Jacqueline Rogers are bright, vibrant and colorful. They depict all the adventures of Little Ree and her colorful attire. Her red hair in braids and her blue cowboy boots. This appears to me to be the beginning of a series about Little Ree in her her new found home in the country.

Adorable New Children's Book!
This is a precious book! My seven year old son and four year old daughter are already huge fans of Ree Drummond's "Charlie the Ranch Dog" series of books, and now we (hopefully!) have another series from her to enjoy! The illustrations are beautiful to look at and wonderfully capture the feelings of Little Ree as she makes her transition into country life. Little Ree has an adorable little personality too.
