    Really good!

    I read this book and it broke my heart to see someone abuse an animal like that! I read it once and that was it! It was a great book, but I still can't get through it without crying!

    Awesome book!

    I read this book as a child and remembered it when I had to do a book/movie analysis in college so here it is. Judd is the antagonist who keeps his dog (later known as Shiloh) from the protagonist whom is Marty. The whole story is the process in which Marty takes to try and get Shiloh and "save" him from Judd. There is some violence in this text towards animals. But overall it is a good book... a must have for any future teacher's collection.

    ok...

    i see what adults see in it. it's morally complicated, has a great lesson, they all live happily ever after, bla bla bla. but honestly, it's written in the voice of an olden-day farm boy that doesn't add to it at all. if anything, it detract from hoe good the book really is.

    I love this book!

    This was one of the best books I ever read! True, there is some language and vilonce but it is still very, very, good. I think everyone that likes animal stories would like to read it.
