When he finds a mistreated beagle pup, 11-year-old Marty knows that the animal should be returned to its rightful owner. But he also realizes that the dog will only be further abused. So he doesn't tell his parents about his discovery, sneaking food for the dog. He's been brought up not to lie, but he doesn't want the dog to be abused. How does he get himself out of this situation? This is book one in the Shiloh trilogy, the winner of the 1992 Newbery Medal, and the winner of the 1994 Rebecca Caudill Award.
