? UPDATED EDITION OF THE TOP SELLER
? THE PERFECT GIFT BOOK OR READ FOR THE DOG LOVER
“Dogs enrich our lives if we let them. This collection includes my
favourite dog poems, many sent to me over the years by people who
simply wanted to share their appreciation and love for their dog. Because
like us humans, each dog is unique.” - Jeff Kennett
The ultimate tribute to man’s best friend and a must-read for all dog lovers, this
updated collection of dog poems, prose and lyrics compiled by Jeff Kennett is
a mix of sweet, heartwarming and relatable tales of and gratitude for our fourlegged
friends.
The book originated after Jeff did a stint on Melbourne radio station 3AW and
read a number of his favourite dog poems on air. The result was electric — a
great deal of talkback about dogs, requests for more poems, requests for poems
to be re-read. Many listeners sent in their favourite poems and the fi rst edition
of this book was the result. This updated edition comes 17 years after the fi rst
edition and brings just as much joy to dog owners and lovers as it did on its fi rst
release.
