Description: "The incredibly carefree and sweet nature of a puppy so easily captivates and enthralls us. We can find ourselves watching a puppy for hours as it takes its first uncertain steps out into the world, or we can simply look at them as they quietly sleep and dream. Browsing the pages of this book we can satisfy our love and curiosity for these little four-legged creatures. The camera lens gives us a unique perspective on play, sleep, a puppy's relationship with its mother, its sibling rivalries, the expressions it makes with its muzzle and indeed everything that makes us fall madly in love with them. All this is emphasized by the snippets of accompanying text that provide a cue for reflection or a chance to smile"--p. [2] of jacket.

Many pages contain quotes by notabale and famous people, often about or applicable to dogs --
Notes: Additional contributors' notes found on p. [222-223].
