Summary: My Hero
Comment: Kaya and Lone Dog, by Janet Beller Shaw, is a book that taught me to appreciate the small things in life, like my brother, my mom and things that may not be valuable but are still things that I own. Kaya lost so many of the things that were in her life. It got me to treat animal's right whether they are strays or not, because Kaya is befriended by a stray dog who becomes very important to her. This book inspired me to try to learn a new language, like Kaya had to learn in order to communicate with someone to try to save herself. This book is one of the best books I ever read.

Summary: Another excellent Kaya story
Comment: This is another in the American Girls series about Kaya'aton'my', a nine-year-old Native-American girl growing up among the Nez Perce people in 1764. In this book, Kaya must avoid the root harvesting, lest her troubled thoughts spoil the harvest. She is troubled at the loss of her sister and horse, and the death of Swan Circling. To keep her busy, she is assigned other tasks, and along the way she meets a starving, pregnant dog. Against the advice of her family and tribe, she befriends the wild dog and her litter, and along the way she learns something about friendship.

This is another excellent Kaya story, complete with Bill Farnsworth's wonderful illustrations. My eleven-year-old daughter is a big fan of Kaya, and loved this book as much as the others. We both highly recommend it to you.

Summary: A special friendship
Comment: In Kaya and the Lone Dog, the 4th book in the series, Kaya is still mourning the death of her namesake Swan Circling. Feeling very much alone and also feeling the continuous guilt of getting her blind sister Speaking Rain captured, she befriends a lone dog, whom Kaya thinks is very much like her, all alone. Though her family and friends object to her befriending the Lone Dog, for it is unusual for a dog to live alone, Kaya doesn't heed their warnings and forms a special bond with the dog. After Lone Dog gives birth to some puppies, Kaya feels more and more attached to the dog and her pups, like they are her family. It is almost like Lone Dog can communicate with her. However, as the pups grow older, Kaya begins to feel the inevitable. Will Lone Dog leave her? Kaya is hopelessly torn as she knows Lone Dog is a dog that want to be free to roam the wild. In the end, Lone Dog gives a very special gift to Kaya, so she could remember her.
