Synopsis

Dog Spelled Backwards Is Love is a delightful collection of poems and watercolors that celebrate the experiences that dogs bring to their humans. A joy to read, the poems show how dogs can open doors into our hearts and souls, heal our pain, and even teach us to become better people – if we let them.

You’ll meet Tessie, the Saint Bernard who helped the author through a period of grief and inspired the title poem, “Dog Spelled Backwards Is Love.” You’ll share the love-at-first sight experience of a Husky who was caged for months in a shelter before being adopted by a young boy and his loving family. Then there’s Toby, the mischievous but guilt-ridden beagle, who liked to chew shoes and tip over trash containers.

The poems celebrate both everyday experiences we have with dogs and the deep bonds they inspire. You’ll smile at the story of “The Ween,” an eight-pound dachshund who fits anywhere and goes everywhere with his parents. And you’ll laugh at the Jack Russell who barks at anyone who tries to sit in “his” chair.

The poems also explore the sadness when our beloved doggies depart this world. You’ll encounter Gemma, a chow terrier mix who has just lost her doggie sister, and is numb with grief. Then there’s a tender poem about a dog parent deciding to sleep downstairs on the couch to stay with his dying Saint Bernard who can’t climb stairs anymore.
Watercolor illustrations and a full-color interior serve to enrich the reading experience and make the book a great gift for dog people.

Warm, hilarious, and heartfelt, Dog Spelled Backwards Is Love will likely remind you of your own special dogs and why you love them so much.
