Brutal Dog
A Review by James

When Jet, the dog, was in the army after his owner went to jail she was a great dog. She saved lives and helped the army. She got hurt once and awhile but immediately went back into active duty as a patrol dog. Soon Jet's owner that went to jail joined in the army and found jet. He didn't take over and was her patrol keeper but he did see her once in awhile. The book ended up the owner telling the class about jet and her heroism and her courage.
Well this book wasn't a joyful book for me but maybe for you. This book has dogs and also about war, how war is bad and such. It was hard to fallow, but I am a slow reader. This book was only a 133 pages but yet it took a long time for me. One thing that I did like about this book is that it set during the beginning of WW2. When the Americans weren't exactly in the war but had some Americans fight for the British army. The dog part of the book wasn't really a interesting thing for me, Boring.
If you really like dogs and like ww2 then this is the book for you, the book is WAR DOG and get it if you want, I give this book a 3 star rating.

This book is a book for dog lovers.
If your like me and love dogs this book is an amazing book for you. The book is about an army that is going to war aginst Germany and there leting dogs be in it. This is how Jet, the dog, got in to the army. At the begening Jets origanal owner was a poacher, someone who hunts in a way that is aginst the law. One day when he was poaching with Jet the police caught him and took him to jail and Jet was put in a cage and Turnip was looking for a dog because he was in the army and he needed a dog and Jet had been turned down several times so Turnip took Jet and used her in the army. Turnip had'nt knoun Jet was a pouching dog so she was already trained. So one day when they were training the dogs the captian saw Jet and Turnip training and the captian was impressed so he said they were going to war. In war Jet and Turnip were both shot but they made it and Americ, after a long hard war, defeated Germany.

A realistic and exciting story for dog lovers
This novel was one of the best books I've read in a while. The main character is a black labrador named Jet who is seperated from her owner when he's arrested for poaching right before WWII. Jet is requisitioned by the Army and begins her adventure in Dunkirk where she and Turpin (her new handler) fight against the Germans. She is soon moved to England and then to Italy where she saves many lives and becomes a hero. There weren't any dull parts in the story, and I also learned a lot of history. I'd recommend this story to anyone, young or old, who loves animals and happy endings.

This book was not to my liking, it might be to yours!!!
War Dog is a great story for young readers interested in dogs and history. Jet, the black lab will probably be remembered by reading this novel by Martin Booth. She is in WW2. I found this book was okay, but I have read better books about animals. This book basically describes Jet's life as a normal dog. This book was actually pretty informal, although I still disliked it very much. If your more of a history type person and you like animals, War Dog is for you! Jet is very couragous and kind throughout the book. She helped many people, who were depending on her. First, she was taken away from her original owner who is an English poacher named Fred.She goes through three owners until she is sent home to England for good. So, I really wouldn't read War Dog again, but maybe you would!

I think this book is very intresting.
The book I read was called War Dog and i'm here to tell you what my book is about.In my book at the beggining of the story a man named Fred Parry who was arrested because he stole pheasent from other people's property. When he was sent to jail World War 2 began.Fred had a dog that retreaved the pheasent for him. The dog was sent to the army when he was arrested. The man who picked the dog to be his partener was called Turpin but his real name was John, he did not know he was already trained and was amazed how good he was doing when he was training him in the field's .Then the general noticed how good he was doing .then he looked in his folder and sow he was already trained. When they went to war Turpin and his dog were they both got shot . when Turpin got well he got athat said his dog was sent to another army.when the dog was tring to find peple.when he found some body he noticed some body ...

An excellent and easily understood tool to teach kids!
This attractive, hardback book "Parables for Kids" is excellently written and illustrated. Not only the Biblical story, but a contemporary one is presented to allow the child to put today's events and places and things together with the concept the Bible teaches. I used this book to teach a couple of parables to a large group and it was well received. I am eager to buy additional books by these same 2 authors, Danae and James Dobson, daughter and dad.

Good for kids 1st grade - 5th grade
I am in charge of our church's children's church ages 4- 7. When I ordered this book the description said ages 4-8. When I got the book, it had long pages of text. I did not think that 4 0r even 5 year olds would sit still long enough to hear the story. I love the concept of the book, but I prefer shorter pages of text with illustrations that I can show the kids; or I think I will lose their attention. I do recommend it for ages 6 and up.

An excellent resource to teach difficult concepts to kids
I particularly enjoyed using the story of the Good Samaritan. The authors do an excellent job of telling a modern story followed by the Biblical story then tie the two together. The Good Samaritan brings home the meaning so very well for kids. I would recommend this book or cassette for Children's Church or for home Bible study. It would also be good for young homeschoolers.

Can't Stop Listening
We borrowed these audio cassettes from the library. My daughter listened to them over and over. Friends of hers who happened to ride in the car with us listened too, and they didn't want to get out when we arrived at our destination because they needed to finish the story they were on. Very powerful current day illustrations that all kids relate to. They make the parables of Jesus come alive. It's a shame the title isn't more catchy because some kids will miss listening because of it. ... Read more
