Old Toffer's Book of Consequential Dogs
I've rounded up a rowdy assembly Of my own Consequential Dogs As counterparts to Eliot's mogs. Mine are a rough and ready bunch: You wouldn't take them out to lunch . . . But if they strike you as friendly, funny, Full of bounce and fond of a romp, Forgetful of poetic pomp, I trust you'll take them as you find them And, at the very least, not mind them. T. S. Eliot's best-selling collection of practical cat poems has been one of the most successful poetry collections in the world. For the first time in company history a companion volume will be published. Originally conceived by Eliot himself, Old Toffer's Book of Consequential Dog poems are a witty, varied and exquisitely compiled as Eliot's cats.

3.5 stars “Fill your home with Happy Hounds! Better still, fill house and grounds: Indoors, outdoors, cellar, roof! A dog-filled home is misery-proof.” This book is cute! It fills with poetry about some dog breeds. It makes me smile for sure :) I don’t have a dog, but wishing to have one. Even though I really enjoy this book, I have to admit there are some poetry that I didn’t get. But overall this book alone will make an amazing gift for dog lovers out there. Thank you Faber Faber for this wonderful gift :)
