Customer Reviews

Such a fun book!

"Oh, they are sooooo cute...." Isn't that what we say about dogs and cats, especially puppies and kittens? Well, this book has done "cute" two-fold. Okay, I admit it. I wrote the same review for two books by the same author--they are different but the same--you know how cats and dogs don't always mix so well. Susanna Geoghegan has a book about cats and one about dogs. One is Cat Quips; the other Canine Quips! Each book has wonderful photos and great quotes that tie to the photo. My two books have about a dozen little stickies marking certain quotes. I know--I am a quote collector (and there is no 12-step program for us) so I was glad to see some new quotes, and some famous ones brought to new life with the corresponding photo. The animals are shown in and on things, doing things, or doing nothing. Each photo made me smile because of its charm. Here's my favorite cat quote with a photo showing a kitten sleeping on a small folding beach chair. "One of the fallacies of a summer holiday is that you are going to get some serious reading done while you are lying on the beach."--Nancy Stahl. Now let's hear it for the dogs... A yawning dog is pictured next to "I don't grasp things this early in the day. I mean I hear voices all right, but I can't pick out the verbs."--Jean Collins Kerr These 65-page books would be great gifts for dog or cat lovers--or quote lovers. I have mine, now get yours. Armchair Interviews agrees with famous author Lewis Carroll, "What is the use of a book...without pictures or conversations." This book has both.
