The beloved beagle is just as happy as Marty is, and the whole family is overjoyed as well.Shiloh\u2019s injuries have all healed, his fur looking healthier, and he has grown a lot stronger. Marty, his sisters Becky and Dara Lynn, and their parents can finally relax. Everything feels right, until the Prestons hear that Judd has started hunting in the woods near their house. Judd Travers, the previous owner of the beagle, demands Marty to give Shiloh back for him to use during hunting season. He threatens he\u2019ll get Shiloh back no matter what method he has to use. But, Judd is gravely injured in a car accident. The townspeople take good care of him, even though he wasn\u2019t ever nice to any of them. After Judd returns from the hospital, Marty and his father bring Shiloh to visit him. For the first time in his life, Marty sees Judd show some kindness when he starts to pet Shiloh.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d recommend this novel to animal lovers, especially kids who consider their pets\u2019 as brothers and sisters. There are many vivid descriptions about how children and dogs grow up together. From this book, we can also see that people can change their attitude towards the world. Judd treated his neighbors and dogs badly because that was how his parents acted. He treats them better after they show him kindness and help him recover.<\/p>\n<p>Click <a title=\"Shiloh Season\" href=\"http:\/\/windsor.bibliocommons.com\/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&amp;t=smart&amp;search_category=keyword&amp;q=shiloh+season&amp;commit=Search\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a> to place a hold on <em><strong>Shiloh Season<\/strong><\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time for some more book reviews from Teen Advisory Group member Linda. &nbsp; Shiloh By Phyllis Reynolds Naylor Going out for a walk one day, Marty Preston returns home with a beagle following him.
