Book Description
Inky, the Little Red Riding Pug, loves her grandmother- who gave her a beautiful red velvet cloak to wear whenever she visits her house that sits deep in the woods. One day, grandmother is sick, and Inky's mother asks her to bring her some soup and soda water. "No lollygagging," says the wise mother pug. In the woods, Inky meets a wolf she doesn't realize is hoping for a delightful pug snack. When he suggests she takes a moment to enjoy the beauty of the forest, Inky forgets her mother's warning, leaving the wolf to get up to no good. Will fate intervene and save Inky and her grandmother? Your child will delight in Laurren Darr's vivid retelling of this classic fairy tale, accompanied by the evocative illustrations of Florina Boldi. It's a tale of pugs, a big bad wolf, a smart hunter-and why it's important to listen to your parents. About The Author: Laurren Darr has been 'owned' by pugs since her first pug rescue of White Pines Tuttie when she was just six years old. Tuttie had never been out of a cage or even uttered a bark. She was the joy of Laurren's life until she left this world at the age of 15 (human years, of course!). This silly pug would let Laurren dress her, put clippy earrings on her, and even put lipstick on her. They'd spend hours tootling around the neighborhood dressed in their Sunday best, which is why Tuttie served as the inspiration for the launch of the International Association of Pet Fashion Professionals over thirty years later. Laurren has had many pugs since. Zacchaeus was a gift to her for her 16th birthday. She has also featured family rescue pugs Inky & Sarge (brother and sister) and Benji, in her Pug Fairy Tale Series story adaptations. Her busy Chicago-area home is filled with her husband, her son, a fabulously fashionable pug named Bella and a blue and gold macaw, Kao.

Book Description
What was born from a family love of pugs has grown in to re-writing historical tales, fables, and nursery rhymes with a new "puggy" twist. Adapting these timeless stories has become a hobby for the Darr-Tinkle family and turned into the creation of many pug children's books. They are suitable for any child or pug lover. Lauren L. Darr has been 'owned' by pugs since her first family pug rescue of White Pines Tuttie when she was just six years old. Tuttie was a pug left at the vet after getting fixed because the breeder didn't need her in his puppy mill anymore. She had never been out of a cage or even uttered a bark. Tuttie was the joy of Lauren's life until she left this world at the age of 15 (human years, of course!). Now, Inky & Sarge (brother and sister) and Benji are the pugs of the house. Inky & Sarge have been the featured mascots for Lauren's marketing company, LOI International since 2004. They were rescued from Ohio Pug Rescue in 2001. Benji has slowly started creeping into the marketing materials since he was rescued in 2006. He came from Chicago as the owner was unable to take care of him anymore. About Little Red Riding Pug Adapted from an old-fashioned version of the traditional story, Little Red Riding Pug is a great story to share with the kids. This book is delightful for children and for all pug lovers. This sixty-page book is filled with colorful illustrations showing a new "puggy" twist on the traditional tale. It makes a great gift or conversation piece in your pug room! Everyone will love it! Story adaptations by Lauren L. Darr. Illustrations by Benacer Sipahutar.

Book Description
To what extent do minority writers feel represented by the literary canon of a nation and its body of "great works"? To what extent do they adhere to, or contest, the supposedly universal values conveyed through those texts and how do they situate their own works within the national tradition? Building on Edward W. Said’s contrapuntal readings and Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak’s reflections on the voice of the subaltern, this monograph examines the ways in which Rafik Schami, Emine Sevgi Özdamar, and Feridun Zaimoglu have re-read, challenged, and adapted the German canon. Similar to other writers in postcolonial contexts, their work on the canon entails an inquiry into history and a negotiation of their relation to the texts and representations that define the "host" nation. Through close analyses of the works of these non-native German authors, the book investigates the intersection between politics, ethics, and aesthetics in their work, focusing on the appropriation and re-evaluation of cultural legacies in German-language literature. Opening up a rich critical dialogue with scholars of German Studies and Postcolonial Theory, Christine Meyer provides a fresh perspective on German-language minority literature since the reunification.
