Illustrated by
Ted Rand.
This enjoyable collection of poems captures the many faces of dogs, whether they're trembling in anticipation of the vet, visiting an elderly woman in a nursing home, or waiting for King Henry VIII to throw them bones from his meal. The poems use a variety of forms and range from humorous to touching, while the diverse styles of illustration, from watercolor to pencil to oils, reflect the poems' changing moods.
