Summary: Funny and moving...the perfect book!
Comment: As someone involved with dog rescue, it was easy to "recognize" all of the dogs and their situations. Dogs (and cats) end up at pounds and shelters by the MILLIONS each year for reasons as diverse as "I'm moving", to "I didn't know they would shed". And sadly, the majority of these dogs end up being put to death. In this wonderful book, Mr. Breathed brings attention to the plight of these creatures while entertaining, fabulously! I recommend this for every animal lover and Berkeley Breathed fan.

Summary: Great illustrations
Comment: With a name like Berkeley Breathed you'd better be a Pulitzer-Prize winning illustrator with the talent to boot; otherwise, you yourself might end up in the Piddleton Last-Chance Dog Pound as just another flawed, unloved, and rejected mammal, whether canine or human. This funny book brings together a gaggle of aesthetically challenged canines for whom Lady Luck seems to have happily passed them by. Some of their owners are almost as unprepossessing, but you know what they say about dog owners resembling their dogs. Some of them are so homely they're almost cute, but I guess that wasn't enough to save them from the pound. This is another funny and beautifully illustrated children's book from Breathed.

Summary: SUPERB...Berkeley Is A Genius again and again! Ages 3 - 150
Comment: Been an enormous fan of the man for years. Bloom County was epic, a force in the papers that left little else. I've always been amazed at how he's carried the texture and grace of the comic strip to book form, and he has once again. Going far beyond typical illustration, he's evolved the art form into it's next phase...awesome!!
This book is incredible. I said astounding and I mean it, as even I didn't intend to be as moved as I was. There's a thinly veiled metaphor here, and hits its mark completely. Thank you so much, Mr. Berkeley, for once again raising the bar high above the rest. You'll always occupy that space with Shel Silverstein and his like. For all ages, a comedic, emotional masterpiece.
