Sure, you think most books are written by humans. But this book doesn‘t fall into this ‘neat‘ category, instead the author is a seven-pound Papillon. Genevieve. As ‘barktated’ by her owner, errr make that human companion, author and stand-up comedian Dr. Dennis Fried.

In this short, pithy laugh-out-loud book, Genevieve shares her world from a tiny pampered pooch’s point of view. Chapters run the gamut from:

Welcome to Me, World” to “Going to the Doggy Supermarket” to the last chapters “Herd on the Street” and “Ask Genevieve” for compelling answers to questions on readers’ (and canine counterparts‘) minds.

Dear Genevieve,

I always scratch my pillows before I lie down on them. I just can’t help it.

Why do I do that? My humans don’t like it because sometimes I rip the covers.

Love, Dolly

Dear Dolly,

Scratching the pillows and walking around in circles before lying down are

essential for a good night’s sleep. Dogs learned this millions of years ago. Humans

being lower on the evolutionary scale, still don’t know it. That’s why so many of them

have insomnia and need to read for hours or take pills to fall asleep. Your humans are

just jealous of your ability to fall asleep instantly. Keep scratching and ignore them.

Kibbles and Kisses, Genevieve

Are you curious about why dogs bark when the doorbell rings on television? What your dog and more importantly, why is doing what looks like a barking push up? Genevieve has the answer: Any noise I hear outside, I’m assuming it’s the ugliest, most humongous flesh-eating alien in the universe. And I’m going to bark until proven otherwise, or until it blasts off and goes back to where it belongs.

If you are looking for a book to read while relaxing at the beach, this is it. If you are seeking a book for you dog-loving friends, this is it. If you want to read a book from a dog’s point of view, seeking answers to canine mysteries, this is it. Or if you simply want to read a dog humor book from cover to cover (or heads to tails), this is it!

Other books by author Dr. Fried include, “A Tongue in the Sink: The Harrowing Adventures of a Baby Boomer Childhood.” Although the author holds advanced degrees in physics and philosophy, according to the book jacket, “When not helping Genevieve with her career, he can usually be found pestering her for a raise.” Dr. Fried, his wife Katrina, and the seven-pound author live in Sarasota, Florida.
