Reviews
Impossible to resist! -- Joe Coomer, author The Loop, Pocketful of Names, Apologizing to Dogs, and other book "Book Jacket"
E. B. White, dog enthusiast and keen observer, liked to opine about what made his many dogs do what they did. Predating the blogosphere by nearly a century, White's personable storytelling retains its freshness and immediacy and will charm and enlighten a new generation of dog-lovers. -- Claudia Kawczynska, Editor in Chief, The Bark "Book Jacket"
What a wonderful gift, to see E. B. White's writing on dogs published in one volume. White brought to dogs the same brilliant qualities he brought to his writings about life, his gentleness, perceptiveness, and rich, sometimes biting humor. He got dogs, loved them dearly, saw them clearly, wrote about them brilliantly. -- Jon Katz, author of the new collection of short stories, Dancing Dogs, and many other books, lives a "Book Jacket"
