Johnny Mad Dog

I was hooked on Johnny Mad Dog right away. I had been warned that it was told through two different narrators. However, that is the part of the book that I really like. Having the story of Johnny/Matiti Mabe alongside Laokole is really great.

One thing that I didn't catch right away was that Laokole is a girl. I didn't realize that until she was talking about the things she was planning to bring with them on the exile from their home because of the soldiers invading for the looting.

I decided to look up a little on Johnny Mad Dog and found that it is also a movie. A clip on You Tube is available for the movie.
