    Kaya and Lone Dog was a great addition to the series. It picks up not long after the last book. Kaya is dealing with the lingering effects of being kidnapped and feels sad about possibly seeing her new friend leave with his people. It was interesting to watch Kaya earn Lone Dog's trust and watch a friendship begin. The rest of Kaya's people accept Lone Dog after her daring rescue and Kaya has to come to terms with Lone Dog's decision about staying with them. After Kaya's story you will learn about Nez Perce childhood and vision quests. The loyalty of dogs and close proximity of horses is also touched upon.

    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.

    In "Kaya and the Lone Dog"(Book 4 in the series), Kaya remembers many things about the time she was taken captive and empathizes with a lone dog. She remembers how she was hungry and got only scraps as a slave girl, so she makes a promise to the dog to feed her. Although her grandmother fears that the dog may be a dangerous half-wolf, Kaya earns the dog's trust with her respect and kindness. Others in the tribe also grow to trust the dog after she saves one of her younger brothers from a bear, and the dog and her weaned puppies are welcomed into the tribe. Kaya senses though, that the dog wants to remain a lone dog and fears she will not stay with the group. Because Kaya also knows the feeling of being held captive, she values freedom and faces loss. In her loss, though, she receives a gift from the lone dog.

    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.

    This story was so touching, and cute! I felt like I was right there with Kaya, visiting the brave Lone Dog and her puppies. I think Kaya's relationship with Lone Dog is very entertaining, and I can easily imagine the puppies in my mind's eye. The ending may not be what readers' desire, but at least it didn't end the way I originally thought it did.

    Besides the dogs, this book contained the usual history pages, and pages describing what Kaya and her family/friends do around their Native American camp.

    Dog-lovers who read the Kaya books will enjoy this book the way I did, and I personally think any Kaya reader will think of this as a great book about love and friendship (I apologize for how sappy I sound).
