Tuck Triumphant is a fascinating book about a teenage girl named Helen Ogden who adores her two dogs, Tuck and Daisy. Tuck becomes blind, and Daisy leads him where he needs to go. Helen's family adopts a boy named Chok-Do Cho and discovers he is deaf. Chok-Do gets into trouble causing Helen to go on scary and exciting adventures. The problem is that Helen's family still was not finding a better way to communicate, causing the mother and father to consider sending him back. Can the Ogden family learn to live with a dog that is blind plus a boy who is deaf? Read the book to find out.

When Helen's family decides to adopt a child, they chose a Korean boy named Chok Do Choy. When they pick him up at the airport, they find out a horrible secret. Read the book to find out!The book is well written and makes you read on. The author, Theodore Taylor, is a very colorful writer. He uses lots of literary devices, and he make me feel like I'm right in the story. I would recommend this book to people who like suspense, tragedy, and humor.
Tuck Triumphant is a great book and I would recommend. June 15, 1999 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Tuck TriumphantTuck Triumphant is a great book and I would recommend it to anyone who likes dogs. This book was interesting because of the tragedies, happiness, and frightfulness. I liked when Helen got back Tuck after he ran away with Chok-do. The characters are really realistic. The book sounded like it could really happen. Since Chok-do is deaf and they're not sure if they want to keep him. Lady Daisy was injured, but you have to read it to find out #1: Do they keep Chok-do? #2 What happens to Lady Daisy? By: Aaron
I thought the book was an O.K. book. June 15, 1999 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I thought that the book Tuck Triumphant was an O.K. book. It wasn't that bad. It wasn't a book I would like to read again. It was a good book at some parts. Some parts it wasn't so good. Some parts I think are strange like when Helen's family already has lots of kids, a blind dog and another dog. They adopted another kid from another country. Another thing is they have to be careful because they have a blind dog and a deaf child.
I would recommend this book to a friend June 15, 1999 I would recommend this book to a friend. They were going to get a Korean boy. They didn't know Choke-Do is a deaf mute. Sometimes Tuck jumps the fence. North plot wasn't moving fast. Yes, the characters are realistic. The dialogue helped a lot for me to understand the story better. Read to find out if they get a new dog to replace Lady Daisy, and to see how they enjoyed their trip it Colorado.
