We will order it for you and ship this item to you once it is received by us. Table of ContentsReviewsSeventeen brief, appealing poems, ten of them published here for the first time. The poets are familiar and contemporary (Worth, Yolen, Kennedy, Ciardi); the dogs all shapes, sizes, and ages - from a Newborn Puppy to the companion mourned in the last line of Livingston's own poem: But now he's gone. He died. He's dead. Morrill's agile, affectionate drawings capture them in a pleasing variety of poses. Neither verse nor illustration has quite the appeal or quality of the companion volume (Cat Poems, 1987, illustrated by Trina Schart Hyman); nonetheless, an attractive collection.
