The irresistible illustrated diary of one very special London
dog--the perfect gift book for dog lovers of all stripes (and spots!)
Hello. My name is Plum and I'm a whoosell--a whippet mixed
with Jack Russell and poodle. I especially like swimming, leaping, and
croissants, and my favorite fragrance is fox poop. I live with Emma, an
illustrator, and Rupert in London.
Over the last year, I've been keeping a diary. Emma helped with the pictures, but the words are all mine.
Since 2012 Emma Chichester Clark has been delighting followers with her blog Plumdog,
which records the adventures, discoveries, wry observations, and social
engagements of her dog, Plum. Now Plum's best pages are collected in
this beautiful little storybook volume, which will delight anyone who
has ever loved a dog. @goodreads
MY REVIEW:
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1389413349 5 STARS
I really loved this book. The cover is so beautiful, I found myself giving it little hugs, as I do all of my books :)
The
illustrations are so sweet. I love how the author wrote the book to
where it looks like someone is writing in a journal in pencil. But Plum
says it's her blog, yes she writes a blog, or so she says in the book :D
Plum's
mom is named Emma and she writes books. Plum has all kinds of friends
in the book and she always spends a lot of time with her sister Liffey.
There
are also many family members in the book and it's so funny when Plum
refers to them in dog years! For instance they go to see Grandpa and
Plum says he is 588 years old in dog years :) I thought that was so
cute.
The book also has some things in the book that kids and people could learn about dogs, I thought that was a great addition.
I am a dog lover so this book was wonderful to me and I would recommend it to anyone or their children who loves dogs as well.
*I would like to thank BLOGGING FOR BOOKS for a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.*
