Ebook Shiloh Audible Audio Edition Phyllis Reynolds Naylor Peter MacNicol Listening Library Books
From Phyllis Reynolds Naylor comes this unabridged recording of her Newbery Award-winning tale of adventure, courage and love, the timeless and moving story of a dog in trouble and the young boy who would save him.
Eleven-year-old Marty Preston loves to spend time up in the hills behind his home near Friendly, West Virginia. Sometimes he takes his .22 rifle to shoot cans from the rail fence. Other times he goes up early in the morning just to sit and watch the fox and deer.
But one summer Sunday, Marty comes across something different on the road just past the old Shiloh schoolhouse, a young beagle, and that's where the trouble begins.
What do you do when a dog you suspect is being mistreated runs away and comes to you? When the man who owns the dog has a gun? This is Marty's problem, and it is one he will have to face alone. Soon Marty will have to put his courage on the line, discovering in the process that it is not always easy to separate right from wrong. Sometimes, however, a boy will do almost anything to save a dog.

"This was one I read a long with my nieces, and we all loved it. I mean it's a story of a boy and a dog, what could be better? I liked Marty, I found him to be a relatable narrator, which is something that is very important, I think, especially, in books for younger, and particularly middle-school readers. It's a story not just for kids, but adults too, they will become just as invested and interested in Marty and Shiloh's story, especially as I feel Marty learns a few of life's lessons and to some extent growing up as well. Highly recommended!!"

- This was one I read a long with my nieces, and we all loved it. I mean it's a story of a boy and a dog, what could be better? I liked Marty, I found him to be a relatable narrator, which is something that is very important, I think, especially, in books for younger, and particularly middle-school readers. It's a story not just for kids, but adults too, they will become just as invested and interested in Marty and Shiloh's story, especially as I feel Marty learns a few of life's lessons and to some extent growing up as well. Highly recommended!!
- I read this with my 2 boys who are 11 and 9. They loved this book and the story of Shiloh. Once we would start reading at night, they didn't want to stop. They are usually pretty egger to get reading time over with, so that tells you something about this story.
- I purchased this book for my fifth grade granddaughter. She is an avid reader - loved it (loves dogs) - finished it the first day.
- Shared with the local Bright Red Bookshelf as listed on the MENSA reading list!
- I once had a dog that my dad brought home for my little brother by 8 years. He would never get me a dog no matter how I asked, but got my little brother one soon as he mentioned it. The dog imprinted on me and i took care of it. Bought its food. Played with it. Ran him. The whole nine yards. I worked hard, just like Marty, for that dog. Unfortunately, my dad forced me to get rid of him just 3 months in. Glad to see a story that resonated and turned out good.
- I purchased this book for my 11 year old grandson. He needed a book to read at school when his work was finished. He is captivated by the story. Everyday he comes home from school telling what is happened in the book. He even told me that his teacher asked him to stop doing his work so fast just so he could read Shiloh. Now that's a great book, one that you can hardly wait to get back to reading!
- My 8 years old son loves the books. They make for a really cool gift for a kid who enjoys reading.
- My daughters read this as a requirement in third grade and loved it. I surprised them with the book one day after I picked them up from school and they both became quite excited. Can we say bookworms? Haha.
