Shiloh SP

En casa de Marty Preston no sobra el dinero, así que parece imposible que él y sus hermanos tengan una mascota. Un domingo, Marty encuentra un cachorro beagle y decide cuidar y proteger, aunque pertenece a un vecino conocido por maltratar a sus perros. Para mantener a salvo a Shiloh, Marty debe mentir una y otra vez, y cada mentira genera un problema mayor. A través de esta lucha, Marty comprende que no siempre es fácil saber qué es lo correcto, y que hacer el bien puede tener un precio. Esta historia ganadora del Premio Newbery explora la lealtad, la familia y la complejidad de las decisiones morales a través del vínculo entre un niño y su perro.

English

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.
