Here's a book that will make dog owners sit up and beg for more. It's Leigh Anne Jasheway's Bedtime Stories For Dogs , a hilarious volume for pampered pets and their human parents. From tales like "The Three Little Pugs" to "Snow White and the Seven Chihuahuas," Bedtime Stories entertains everyone who's ever had--or loved--a spoiled canine. The tales in Bedtime Stories are written just the way dogs like things--they're short and simple, they have happy endings, they usually involve food, and they frequently refer to things that smell really awful. Each one of these stories was proofed (and woofed) by the author's two wiener "If they didn't give a story two paws up and two tails wagging, it was back to the drawing board," she says. This is the perfect treat for *Whose dog has control of the remote (and flips when watching dog food commercials *Whose dog occasionally allows him to sleep in the bed (but only if he doesn't hog the covers!) *Who doesn't even notice the dog hairs in their food *Who carries their dog when he gets winded Anyone who has a canine companion will want this charming book. It's a bow-wow bedtime bible!
Cute idea, not so great execution. Stories are partly over-descriptive, other parts are rushed, making for an unbalanced read. Might have been better if, per short story, a page or two were added to the length.
A Very Silly Book Of Good Night Stories For Puppies & Their Humans
We enjoyed snuggling down with our bedtime snack of human cookies, dog cookies, and a warm cup of tea. We squished in side by side in the pillow and read and re-read our favorite stories. Before long, even our new kitten joined us. We decided to let him in on the fun even though he isn't a dog.
It looked cute for a quick distraction (& to catch up on my Goodreads challenge!) but I didn't realize the stories were familiar tales retold with dog details. Too cute.
