a great story of a boy, a dog & a wolf

I am Rebel by Ross Montgomery is a wonderful story of the friendship between a boy and a dog. Rebel was a starving puppy when he was rescued by his person, and they share a happy life on the farm. Unfortunately there is an evil king/ruler, and the family is struggling to survive as the king keeps raising their taxes due. The boy is an artist, and one day leaves the farm to join the Reds, fighting the king. Rebel is devastated to be left behind and decides he must find the boy and bring him home.

What follows is an adventure where Rebel befriends a feral dog, fights off wolves, meets a kind shepherd, and eventually becomes the hero during battle.

Boy and dog are reunited, and both discover what it really means to love.

Its a lovely story, which I think any kid (maybe 3rd through 6th grade) would love!

Such a cute story!

I’m so glad I picked this book as the first book for my inaugural book club with my niece and nephew, both 12. They finished it in one day! Read it. You won’t be disappointed.

Heart warming adventure

“He is my boy, I am a good dog, and I love him”….what more is there to say?!

Ridiculous story

I hated this book. Inane plot, ridiculous characters. It was a total waste of time.
