Shiloh

Money is tight in the Preston household, so having a pet seems impossible for Marty and his siblings. One Sunday, Marty finds a stray beagle puppy and decides to protect and care for it, even though it belongs to a neighbor known for mistreating his dogs. To keep Shiloh safe, Marty must lie again and again, and each lie leads to bigger trouble. Through his struggle, Marty learns that knowing what's right isn't always simple, and doing the right thing can come at a cost. This Newbery Medal-winning story explores loyalty, family, and the complexity of moral choices through a boy's bond with a dog.
