Summary: A good conclusion to the Marty/Shiloh trilogy!
Review: A reader from Berea, Kentucky A good conclusion to the Marty/Shiloh trilogy! Marty and his dog Shiloh come full circle in this last of Phyllis Reynolds Naylor's trilogy. Having read each of the books in the series, I must say Shiloh is my favorite, but Shiloh Season and Saving Shiloh are well worth a reader's time! Naylor has a knack for naturally developing her characters. We want to hate Judd Travers from the beginning, but we, like Marty, wonder if there's a chance for Judd to really change. The experiences Marty has dealing with Judd and the anxiety that is described mounts to a dynamic conclusion that is not quite predictable, but desired by eager readers. Each of the Shiloh trilogy books has an easy style of writing, one that gives a realistic glimpse into rural West Virginia. We see and understand the struggles Marty goes through and anticipate a happy ending. Sometimes we are left hanging at the end of the chapter, but Naylor wraps up her Shiloh adventure with a satisfying conclusion.

Summary: Best of the Shiloh Trilogy!!!!
Review: Fans of the popular Shiloh books will not be disappointed with this book, the third installment of the series.
Saving Shiloh may be even better than its Newbery Award winning predecessor Shiloh.
Marty, Judd, and of course Shiloh are once again the main characters. This story delves more deeply into the relationship of Marty and Judd and whether kindness from others can change ones heart. An unsolved murder adds excitement and new plot lines.
Fans of the series that live in the beautiful state of West Virginia will not be disappointed. Familiar city names are once again mentioned and some that are not so familiar such as Little.
Whether you live in West Virginia or not this book and the others in the series are wonderful. You can't help but feel like you are part of Marty's family and they way he deals with his younger sisters is so real.
Now that we have finished the series we are planning to make a day trip to visit Friendly, WV and see if we can find the old Shiloh school house.

Summary: MARTY AND SHILOH
Review: Have you ever heard of the dog that was beaten and abused? Well in my book it tells of a story of a young boy who owns a once beaten dog. This book is about Shiloh and Marty's relationship and how they live together. It shows how a poor family lives and how they go through each day being happy. I would like a sixth grader to read this book because Marty is young and a sixth grader would enjoy that. They can relate to the troubles he has at his age. SAVING SHILOH by Phillis Reynolds is a great book for everyone.
The vocabulary of the book is very easy to understand. Though, there are no photos to help you, the book is not difficult. A normal sentence in the book has little hard to understand words such as, "that night when I go to the door to let Shiloh in, I see that light again."
This book can amaze you with its heroic stories and events. Generally speaking, this book is written in a mood that will make you happy. You can tell the book is happy and exciting by this quote,"I lay down on the floor and hide my face in my arms, and that dog goes nuts." The front picture shows you how happy Shiloh is.
This book is written as if Marty is telling an autobiography. It is in first person and it has many adventerous stories. Marty wants you to know about him and his dog and how Shiloh changed so many lives. One event that I read over and over was when there is a huge flood. In the flood Marty's little sister falls into the river. Once you read what happens you will deaply cherish this book. To show how happy Marty is with Shiloh, he tells you that every night he gets up looking for Shiloh because he loves him so much. He wants you to see how happy a life can be with a dog.
Families and schools will love the book SAVING SHILOH. It tells you of how Marty and Shiloh live. If you are still young or in sixth grade, please read this great book.

Summary: Saving Shiloh
Review: I gave this book five stars because I love animal books. Last fall (in Shiloh Season)Judd Travers got into a car accident that would have killed him but a dog named Shiloh barked and whined till someone came to see what was wrong. Now the tables have turned. It' Judd's turn to save Shiloh. I like this book because it's really easy for me to put my family and myself into Marty and his family's position.

Summary: Saving Shiloh
Review: I give the book "Saving Shiloh" 3 stars, but at least it is better than the first book. The book is about a kid name Marty, and he has bad grammars. He loves his dog very much, which he got from some old mean looking guy, and it looks like he loves his dog more than his oldest sister. Also the book is like a mystery since Marty and his friend tries to solve the mystery of a murder.
The book is sort of boring once in awhile, since all they do is talk, talk, and talk some more about Shiloh. When there is action like when something big is happening, that is when the book gets interesting. I like the book because it shows the action with great detail, and I could already picture the scene in my head.

Summary: THIS BOOK DESERVES MORE STARS!
Review: I have never come across a story about a dog I have loved nearly as much as Shiloh (and Daisy, the mama dog of author Kopper fame). Shiloh really is a continuum of love. Christian themes such as love, forgiveness and taking the challenge to rebuild lives are visited in this gentle conclusion to a first rate trilogy. Mere words do not do this book nor its author justice. The best suggestion one could possibly make is to encourage others to read the "Shiloh" trilogy.A nod to the author -- beagles have always been my favorite breed of dog. I adopted an abandoned, hurt beagle at a local shelter. Her name is Falcon. In recent years, Falcon has become a pet therapy dog in a local nursing home where she delights the senior citizens there. One of the nurses fell in love with Falcon. Since she said her dad was getting her a dog for her birthday, she picked a beagle because she loved Falcon. She could not think of a name for her hound, so I suggested "Clover," after the real dog who inspired the "Shiloh" trilogy. Within a few days, she told me that her hound was named "Clover." This Clover delights the seniors in that home as well. Falcon is a fixture in her neighborhood and community. There is a large female beagle in the neighborhood named Shiloh because her young owner loved the "Shiloh" trilogy so much he wanted to be like Marty and have a cool dog like Marty. This author, to her credit has created a continuum of love. We love Marty, his family and his delightful hound, Shiloh. They are here to stay!
