Billy had two dogs - Old Dan and Little Ann.
Wilson Rawls was home-schooled and had a very poor education, therefore his spelling and grammar was terrible. But he loved to write. No one would publish his books due to the terrible spelling. He tore them all up before he got married, because he didn't want his new wife to see all his mistakes. Later he told his wife about his love of writing, and she encouraged him to re-write Where the Red Fern Grows. He did, and she helped him correct the spelling and grammar. It was published in 1961.
