The author and illustrator's identities have been lost to time, but what a work they have left behind: funny, silly, odd, and delightful, this book of proper pups is a unique treasure for children and anyone with a great sense of humor.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong><em>The Doggy Book</em> is a delightfully lighthearted book that's full of illustrations of our favorite thing: animals dressed up and acting as humans.</strong></p> <p>This is a reprint of a 1940s title. The identities of the author and illustrator have been lost to time, but these anonymous creators gave us a delightful array of dressed-up dogs engaged in a variety of human pursuits. We have a Scottie tailor assisting a duck friend with a sailor suit. A family of Terriers is most proud of their outfits, which include top hat and tails for Papa Dog and a full kilt and cap for Baby Dog. But even in this gentle tale (or should we say tail?) a little rain must fall - here it takes the form of a tumble into a puddle, and a bit of mocking by an interloping cat. Nevertheless, all's well that ends well, and nothing can stop these dapper doggies from exuding charm and class on every page. </p> <p>This book is a charming oddity that's sure to be enjoyed by children or lovers of vintage illustration. <em>The Doggy Book</em> is surely the only of its kind. </p>
