Media Reviews
* Guaranteed to charm animal lovers and Paulsen's fans. . . . Something to please at every turn of the page. . . . This honest, unpretentious celebration of dogs further entrenches his reputation as an author who is as successful at writing nonfiction as he is at writing novels.
--Booklist, starred review

Paulsen is a master storyteller with a dry wit. . . . Gives readers a real sense of how the man looks at these animals.
--School Library Journal

* Here's a treat to make Paulsen fans sit up and beg for more.... His writing percolates with energetic love.
