Summary: Wherever danger looms, the heroic Benji is there
Comment: This colorful Golden Look-Look Book, written by Gina Ingoglia and illustrated by Barbara Schaare, finds Joe Camp's Benji temporarily staying with a farm family while his own human family is out of town. Benji loves the outdoors and is just getting to know some of the farm's interesting animals when trouble approaches in the form of a dangerous tornado. Benji senses the danger immediately and goes to work trying to get all the animals to safety. Young Peter Martin's very own heifer, Taffy, is so scared she won't budge from her spot by the fence, though. If Taffy is to be saved, Benji is going to have to draw upon his supreme canine intelligence and self-sacrificing heroism to come up with a plan.

Benji and the Tornado is not a particularly exciting story, but the design of the book itself is quite vivid and impressive. Schaare is a talented illustrator, but I don't think she captures the essence of Benji the way Werner Willis does in other Benji books of this type. The color illustrations should prove of great interest to many a child, though, as they feature a number of barnyard animals and help make a rather unexciting story more enjoyable than it would be otherwise.
