review 1: Reading Joni's words will tickle your funny bone. And maybe have you shedding a tear or two. Joni gives you the emotions you feel - love, anger, insecurity, joy, and sadness with this book. I really enjoyed reading about her life. It was like a little of my life, but totally different. Joni has tweens in the book and although I don't have any, I've got twins, I could feel for her and the problems she has. If you haven't read this book, get it. It's wonderful!
review 2: I love dogs, and I love Joni's book. I think the fact that she was born in the Chinese Year of the Dog kinda says it all. [Full disclosure: I'm a Monkey.] This is Dog as Metaphor; Dog is God spelled backwards; the importance of having a dog in your life because it pretty much defines everything a... morend everyone in the family. I can't imagine what it's like for a family without a dog to anchor human behavior, and Joni explores this subject from a hundred, or maybe a thousand, different perspectives. I read one of the stories [they're really too good to be called essays] every night when I go to bed. While you might think I'm using Joni's book as a sleeping powder with which to bore myself to sleep, that is far from the truth. No, each nightly reading puts me in a good mood because Joni is such a delightful writer - I mean, she is a really, really good writer - and the smiles that spread across my face are a sure sign that the stresses and upsets and crap of the day are now forgotten. The only thing missing is my dog lying at the foot of the bed. She's not, because my wife won't allow it. But at least I've got Joni's dog stories book. less
