The irresistible illustrated diary of one very special London dog--the perfect gift book for dog lovers of all stripes (and spots!) Hello. My name is Plum and I'm a whoosell--a whippet mixed with Jack Russell and poodle. I especially like swimming, leaping, and croissants, and my favorite fragrance is fox poop.

Since 2012 Emma Chichester Clark has been delighting followers with her blog Plumdog, which records the adventures, discoveries, wry observations, and social engagements of her dog, Plum. Now Plum's best pages are collected in this beautiful little storybook volume, which will delight anyone who has ever loved a dog.… (lisätietoja)

ZOMG how freakin' cute. ( )

If you are a dog person, you probably wonder what goes on in their doggy minds, right? Sometimes you can tell what they have to be thinking from the sheer joy they exhibit or the baleful glances they give you when you do something mean like take them to the vet or the groomer. But what about general, daily sorts of things; how do they feel about those? Readers are in luck because Emma Chichester Clark has written and illustrated a charming book about a year in the life of her dog Plum, entirely from Plum's perspective, and it will confirm all the happy, funny things you've always thought your dog was thinking.

Plum is a Whoosell, a whippet, poodle, Jack Russell mix. She likes long walks, cavorting in any body of water, visiting her sister and other canine friends, going on adventures, and cuddling up with her human. She is completely delightful and funny and entertaining and friendly (except to rare not so nice dogs she come across in her ramblings). She shares snippets of her days as well as small insights into Emma's life.

Opening with Plum's New Year Resolutions, which are "To be braver. [picture Plum on her back in a submissive pose between two bigger dogs] To catch a cat. To catch a fox. Not to unstuff my new toys immediately. To sleep in their bed every night" and ending on December 31 with "We went to stay with our friends in the country for New Year's Eve. It was just as comfy as I remembered. The chairs and sofas are for dogs, unlike in our house. While everyone was watching TV I thought about the resolutions I'd made at the beginning of the year, and I realised I had almost 100% failed--except for one thing: the middle of their bed is MINE," the book isn't really a narrative per se, but a delightfully illustrated diary chronicling small, sweet snapshots of the previous year. It's a heart warming love letter to a dog, the joy in her heart and the joy she brings Clark. And reading it will bring the same kind of uncomplicated joy to anyone lucky enough to live with a dog.

Plum, the star of this book, is a whoosell (whippet/poodle/Jack Russell mix) who lives with book illustrator Emma Chichester Clark. Plum (with Clark's assistance) blogs about her life with Emma, Emma's family, and Plum's doggy friends (including her sister, Liffey). Plum loves to swim in the river, or the sea, or any water, really. This book follows Plum through a year in her life. Have you ever wondered what the world looks like from a dog's perspective? How about this description of visits with Grandpa and Grandma?

We went to see Grandpa and Caroline and Maudie. Grandpa is 588 years old in dog years. In the evening we went to Grandma's birthday party. She is 571 but she only had one candle on her cake. Last year she got married. Her new husband is 602. Liffey (my sister) and I were a bit bored because we were the only young people.

Emma's illustrations are lovely, and the decorative border around each page complements the color palette. Plum's narration is almost like hearing my own dog talking. Almost, because my dog does not like water and he would never want to swim in a river, the sea, or a pond. He gives a wide berth to the even the smallest of rain puddles. Highly recommended for anyone who has ever shared life with a dog. ( )

This is just gorgeous. If you have a dog you MUST read it. ( )

Absolutely one of my favourite books ever. So glad I took it off the shelf at my local bookstore and started to read it with my boyfriend. Plum looks just like my mum's dog and I can't wait for her and everyone out there to read these wonderful, heartwarming stories and see the beautiful, fun illustrations. This is a complete treasure.
