Customer Reviews

Tom and Ricky Mystery Series

Tom & Ricky Mystery Books are excellent for struggling readers. The reading level is second grade, but the interest level is for fourth graders up to young adults. The controlled reading level gives older readers an opportunity to read chapter books on material that is interesting for their age level. These books turned my struggling resource students into readers.

That's Right Doggy

Shiloh is Marty's dog now. The title of my book is Shiloh Season by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor. The conflict in my book is that two people want the same dog. In the first book of the Shiloh Trilogy Marty worked very hard to get Shiloh and now he has him. But Judd Travers has something else in mind. The reason my book is called Shiloh Season because in the book Judd Travers. threatens to take Shiloh back and Marty is scared that Judd will end up shooting Shiloh. The main character in my book is Marty Preston. Marty Preston worked so hard for Shiloh and loves him so much that he'd do almost anything to keep Shiloh safe. Marty is very worried about Shiloh getting hurt. Judd gets in a very bad car accident in his Pickup truck while he was intoxicated and Marty thinks that Judd was trying to run Shiloh over. It's then that Marty thinks he should help Judd. I think this is a great book if you like dogs and the relationship between dog and man. I recommend this book to 6th graders and up to any age. I really enjoyed reading this book and didn't want to put the book down and I hope you feel the same way.

The BEst Book Review Ever!!!

I read the story Saving Shiloh by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor. This book was about a boy named Marty who in the first book, Shiloh, worked hard to earn a dog named Shiloh from a very mean neighbor named Judd Tavers. In Saving Shiloh, Judd is drinking a lot and everybody in Friendly, West Virginia is becoming frightened of what he might do while drunk. Marty is afraid Judd might shoot Shiloh with his rifle he shoots squirrels with. One night Shiloh is yelping really loud. Marty and his dad wake up and go see what is wrong. Shiloh is yelping because Judd had driven into a porthole and rolled down a bank. Judd was taken to the hospital unconscious, and they found out he had broken his leg. Judd was in a cast for months, and missed his favorite time of year, hunting season. Since Judd was very sad, people were trying to be nicer to him. They made him dinners some nights and Marty even gave him a special treat in his mail box every day. At the end of the book Judd starts being nicer to dogs and Shiloh even trusts Judd enough to let Judd pet him. Shiloh Season was a very interesting and exciting book. Shiloh Season is an excellent book to read and is extremely entertaining. This book is sad and funny at the same time. It is very sad how Judd treats his dogs. If they do anything wrong Judd will whip them and possibly not feed them. It is funny how Marty treats his little sisters and how they treat him. His eight year old sister, Dara Lynn, is very spoiled and gets Marty in trouble all the time. Marty's three year old sister, Becky, is very young and says some very funny things. This story is also very touching as in how Shiloh reacts whenever Marty leaves him alone or how he gets very scared when Marty takes him near Judd's house. You should read this book because it is a very fast read and will keep you hooked on it. It is a sad book that has a happy ending and has a very realistic story. This book is great for kids who love dogs or any animals. This book is enjoyable for younger readers and even adults. Saving Shiloh is a heartwarming book that will keep you guessing.
