Shilo and Tonka: Masters of Mischief and Mayhem

Shilo is a puppy, a lucky puppy. She is so lucky she has four masters and two houses. Shilo has a very good life. Suddenly, a newcomer is added to the equation, a grumpy old dog named Tonka. The two have a rough beginning that includes a nasty introductory bite to a nose. However, the puppy and the grouchy oldtimer learn quickly that two little dogs can become one big force. Their adventures include encounters with a neighbor cat with a nasty attitude, packs of runaway dogs, traffic jams and angry humans, and even poisoness snakes. The two mischievious canines also constantly find their way into trashcans, a habit that leads them to chicken bones, leftover pizza, ice cream and cake. That eventually lands one of them in big trouble.

4Shilo and Tonka   Dec 11, 2007
Shilo and Tonka, Masters of Mischief and Mayhem, is a good book because they are dogs that go on adventures and its from the dogs' point of view. The author writes it from Shilo and Tonka's point of view which I think is cool. I recommend this book to elementry school readers because it is an easy read and it tells what a dog does when the dog is telling the story. I think that it was kind of sad when Tonka got pancreatitis.

5It's a quick read, but very entertaining for young students.  Dec 05, 2007
I have used this book in classrooms of eighth graders to explain the narrative process. It has worked wonderfully well because the chapters are short and we can deal with characterization, setting, point of view, verb tense and much more in our daily mini-lessons.

The students have been highly engaged in reading chapter to chapter and even the reluctant readers seemed excited with the story. Even better is the fact that the story has encouraged them to become authors themselves.
