Book Description
Dog on Stilts is a barmy, rhyming story about an ambitious dog on a journey toward self-acceptance. Medium Dog was just an average, everyday dog. He wasn't particularly tall or spotty or interesting in any way. At least that's what he thought. So he dreamt up an ingenious way to become extraordinary, a dog to be noticed at last. But while Medium Dog's plan brought him a certain elevated status it couldn't last. Eventually he fell back down to earth again and with a bump. But the experience did teach him the most valuable of lessons, that you can never be ordinary as long as you're loved.

Resident Dog
Author: Nicole England
Publisher: National Geographic Books
ISBN: 1760761311
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Stylish, aspirational homes and the dogs that live in them in a beautifully photographed celebration of style and canines. Just as every home is different, so is every dog. In this stunningly photographed book of architecturally superb houses—many of them architects’ own homes—we see how the presence of a dog brings warmth and life to the most dramatic spaces. From mid-century raw brick to a penthouse apartment, gracious Edwardian to Scandinavian modern, from beach house to country retreat, there is always room for a dog or two. They trot, nap, and sniff through every page, at times more rambunctious than their surroundings, and at others perfectly in tune with the setting. Peek inside the most breathtaking homes that feature French bulldogs, golden retrievers, Labradoodles, and more as your guides. Oblivious to designer furniture, heritage considerations, or serious design aesthetics, dogs can make themselves at home anywhere. In fact, the homes in this book are all the more appealing because of their resident dogs.

The Dog
Author: Joseph O'Neill
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0307472949
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
A New York Times Notable Book Nominated for the Man Booker Prize In this extraordinary, both comic and philosophically profound novel, the acclaimed author of Netherland uncovers the hidden contours of a glittering Middle Eastern city—and the quiet dilemmas of modernity. When our unnamed hero, a self-sabotaging and oddly existential lawyer, finds his life in New York falling apart, he seizes an opportunity to flee to Dubai, taking a mysterious job for a fabulously wealthy Lebanese family. As he struggles with his position as the “family officer” of the capricious Batros brothers, he also struggles with the “doghouse,” a condition of culpability in which he feels trapped, even as he composes endless electronic correspondence—both sent and unsent—in an attempt to find a way out. An unforgettable fable for our globalized times, The Dog is told with Joseph O’Neill’s hallmark eloquence, empathy, and stylistic mastery.
