Answer:
Sounder tells the story of an African American boy, his family, and their beloved coonhound. As in author William H. Armstrong's book, none of the main charac- ters has a name-except the dog, Sounder.
" 'Sounder and me must be about the same age,' the boy said, tugging gently at one of the coon dog's ears, and then the other," the book tells us as it introduces this canine who is named for his bark that resonates across the countryside when he trees a raccoon or opossum.
Sounder is not a true story, but it is an accurate piece of historical fiction about a black sharecropper's family in the southern area of the United...
The boy hears his father may be in Bartow and later Gilmer counties, but the author does not specify where the boy lives. Sounder won the Newbery Award in 1970 and was made into a major motion picture in 1972.
ExplPatterned after a story told to Armstrong by an older school-teacher, the novel is concerned, in part, with the family's loyal coon dog named Sounder—named for his resonant howl that reverberates across the country-side—whose fate in many ways parallels the life of the narrator's unjustly treated father.
