Book Description
Artist George Rodrigue created this book to recapture the holiday memories from his days growing up in New Iberia, Louisiana. These Blue Dog pictures evoke recollections of a very personal nature. Reproduced in vivid color in this book, they are filled with traditional holiday symbols -- a snowman, a Christmas tree, candy canes, toy soldiers -- yet each picture is a window into a very particular moment from his own boyhood, from a time when Christmas was still filled with mystery & a sense of pure joy. He shows that the meaning of Christmas is inseparable from the magic of childhood, & that this magic doesn't necessarily have to disappear once you grow up. Includes a Blue Dog ornament to hang on your Christmas tree.

Book Description
"How did Tiffany, beloved pet of George Rodrigue and his family, become the Blue Dog? What are the secrets that lie behind those soulful golden eyes? What can this inspirational tale about a dog, her master, and his paintings tell us about love, art, and human nature?" "George Rodrigue's colorful and intriguing paintings dramatize Tiffany's transformation from a frisky black-and-white terrier/spaniel to Blue Dog, illustrating the points and counterpoints encountered by both man and beast in their poignant search for deeper communication. The text alternates between the voices of George and Tiffany, so readers have the benefit of both perspectives and can fully appreciate Blue Dog's pointed yet sophisticated sense of humor."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Description
For anyone who ever loved All Creatures Great and Small, Annie England Noblin’s newest novel—about a big city vet transplanted to a small Wisconsin town—is pure delight as we meet aging alpacas, stump-tailed cats, goats in tutus, a vagabond border collie named Kevin, and the people who think they own them. And through it all, Goldie McKenzie, DVM, navigating the small town of Blue Dog, Wisconsin. Welcome to Blue Dog Valley. Home of the Fighting Elk. Population 3,411. When Goldie McKenzie, DVM, vet to the L.A. pet stars, arrives from Los Angeles to Blue Dog Valley she realizes three things. Never agree to upend your life when you’re hungover Pot-belly pigs are not true farm animals She’s going to need a warmer coat At first Goldie is nothing more than a fish out of water, with few clients and few friends. But after a less than pleasant encounter with a man whose dog is suffering from a possibly fatal case of bloat, she’s finally earning the trust and goodwill from her fellow Blue Dog Valley citizens. Her clientele grows to include the many farm animals in the town, including a horse named Large Marge, a cape-wearing therapy alpaca, and a yardful of sweater-wearing goats. Add in Kevin, the “worst sheepdog in Blue Dog Valley,” and a Sphinx cat named Airport, and Goldie is having the best time a vet can have. . . aside from the annoying attractive town grump, Cohen, who seems intent on making sure she always feels like an outsider. With her newfound goodwill, Goldie comes up with an idea to reinvigorate the once flourishing Blue Dog Valley: a Christmas carnival. A petting zoo, pictures with Santa, a baking contest, what more could they want? After only some brief resistance from Cohen and his father, they begin the great plan to reinvigorate Blue Dog Valley. Will Christmas be enough to salvage this dying town—and be enough to bring Goldie closer to a certain grumpy man?
