WELCOME READERS!
Welcome to the fifth grade Wiki.

We will read the novel, __Shiloh__ by Phyllis Naylor, and it is a Newbery Award Winner. Readers of __Shiloh__ may like to know that Shiloh is a very real dog. Phyllis found the dog while visiting friends in West Virginia. While on a woodland walk, she observed the animal, trying to make contact with her, but he was very hesitant. The animal followed her to her friends' home, where they took the beagle in and cared for it. Click on this link to learn more about beagles: http://library.thinkquest.org/CR0211900/shiloh/beagles.htm
