REVIEW: Pukka by Ted Kerasote

November 23, 2010 By Mary 2 Comments

Description

Since the publication of the best-selling Merle’s Door, Ted Kerasote has received thousands of e-mails asking two questions: “Have you gotten another dog?” and “Are you writing a new book?” Pukka: The Pup After Merle answers both, in the most heartwarming way. Told in Pukka’s charming voice and accompanied by more than 200 photos, Pukka: The Pup After Merle tells the story of how Ted found Pukka, recounting the early days of their bonding as they explore Kelly and the wider world. Walks become hikes and hikes become climbs, their adventures culminating in a rugged wilderness journey that teaches both Pukka and Ted something new about the dog-human partnership. Filled with stunning images of the West, Pukka is a love story as well as Ted’s take on raising a puppy. It will do pictorially what Merle did with words—show how dogs thrive when treated as peers while illustrating the many ways that any dog opens the door to our hearts.

–This text refers to the Kindle Edition edition.

MY THOUGHTS
LOVED IT

This is a beautiful story told in pictures and suitable for any dog lover’s coffee table. It is a book that you will want to display and read again. This book tells about the author’s new dog after losing his beloved Merle.  It documents Pukka growth with lovely photos that any dog lover will appreciate.  This would make an excellent holiday gift for that special dog lover in your life.
