Shiloh by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor Reviewd by Jerrod Oct. 30, 2011

Shiloh is a book like saving shiloh, but it takes place in past tense and tells you the story of how Marty got Shiloh. It starts off as him walking down toward the bridge and notices that shiloh follows him wherever he goes. He stops, Shiloh stops. Marty moves, Shiloh moves. He then gets to the end of the bridge and heads back. Shiloh started running away from him when he was walking back, and when he gets home shiloh sits on the other side of the street glaring at the door. When marty goes out the next day he decides to take shiloh in and put him in a pen and hide him from everyone because he knows that the dog is Judd Travers, the meanest person who live on the block and abuses his dogs. Marty is able to keep this a secret for a while until his mom follows him to where he put the pen. His mom thinks that it was bad, but agrees that he should keep the dog there for a bit. Then one day, there was a loud yelp coming from where he kept the pen. He ran out and his dad followed. Marty (not knowing his dad was behind him) looked at shiloh who had blood on his thigh and a huge german sheperd on him buting at shilohs thigh. They were able to get the sheperd away and get marty to a vet. Martys dad had him pay the bill, since he was the one keeping him there. but the his dad went to judd travers and told him about this. His dad goes out of the ordinary and asks if they can keep shiloh untill hes better and his leg has healed. Luckily, Judd agrees. The whole family is excited, since they get to keep a dog for a bit. Then the day before they are supposed to give him back marty grabs a loaf of bread and 2 peaches from a peach tree and heads out at 5 in the morning. He goes to talk toJudd and see if he can keep him When he gets to the top of the hill, he hears an anonymous crack, then another. He sees Judd walking up with a hunting rifle and going towards a dead deer. He thinks this is his chance to get Shiloh. Marty starts yelling at him and telling him hecan get mim arrested and tell the game warden he shot a deer out of season. He then says "I want Shiloh, and I wont tell the game warden." Judd says ok, but he needs to work for him to get 40$. He works for 2 dollars an hour for 5 hours, 5 days a week. He agrees and then runs and tells his family. They have another party and are happy they can keep Shiloh. The END.
