Around England with a Dog

Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
The story of two seasoned and intrepid Canadian travellers, Lesley and Linda Choyce, who embark on a new adventure with their West Highland terrier, Kelty. Lesley Choyce is a 70-year-old year-round North Atlantic surfer, the godfather of transcendental wood-splitting, and the award-winning author of over 100 books. His wife, Linda, a former high school principal who has fearlessly commandeered knives from teenage malcontents, usually guides her husband away from quixotic quests, but she is fully on board for this one. As for Kelty, the couple's West Highland terrier, he's always ready to give up on chewing shoes and chasing pheasants for something more exciting. For years, Lesley has been fascinated and perplexed by the tumultuous history of England, the inexplicable customs of the English, and the many paradoxes of the people, but also their indomitable spirit. If he were to continue to grow intellectually and spiritually, he was certain that the answers to the meaning of life were to be found in England. As their itinerary expands, Lesley and Linda will cross borders into Wales and Scotland as well. Join the Choyces as they hurtle around the U.K. in search of history (all kinds), good food (mostly Indian), quirky destinations (the smaller and weirder the better), and places for the dog to pee. All while waiting for the imminent arrival of new grandchildren back home in Canada. Ever wondered what a Nova Scotian surfer/wood-splitter/Renaissance man/Westie owner thinks of the U.K.? Now you can find out.

Pages : 0
Book Description
"A homeless unloved pup becomes one lucky dog in this tender picture book. . ." --starred Publishers Weekly Review The Gryphon Press is delighted to bring this classic children's picture back into print for a new generation of children. McDuff Moves In has been loved for its heartwarming and lively story and its magical recreation of a simpler era. Readers have commented that they loved reading McDuff's story to their children, and, in due course, to their grandchildren, reading the book over and over, until, as one reader wrote, the "original copy was worn to shreds." "This collaboration by Wells and Jeffers is as sweet, substantial, and comforting as that bowl of rice pudding and will suit the many children who like stories with simple words, clear story lines, and happily-ever-after endings. " - Booklist No one wanted the nameless little dog wandering the streets looking unsuccessfully for food and shelter until kindhearted Fred and Lucy, a young couple, take him inside. After they feed him rice pudding and bathe him, they realize that they cannot bear to return him to the pound. Newly adopted, McDuff-named that night for their favorite shortbread biscuit-is last seen happily asleep on his back on a pillow next to Fred and Lucy's bed. Wells knows just the right words to describe McDuff's emotions in ways that little readers will identify with and understand. She describes his joy in being accepted with these words: ''No one had ever asked him to come in. Everyone had always told him to go away.'' Jeffers's illustrations brilliantly capture a bygone art deco America in Lucy and Fred's cozy home, a virtual-reality nostalgia unfaded. Dog lovers everywhere will recognize the very specific details that bring McDuff to life, from the familiar lift of a paw in the rain to the frightened eyes peeking out over the car dashboard.

Yogi
Author: Nigel McCarthy
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781791902377
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 135
Book Description
Yogi is a West Highland white terrier, a Westie, that I gave to my wife as a puppy at a difficult time in our marriage. In the three years since, Yogi has been both a positive and a negative in our lives. He is an important part of our relationship as a shared interest and as an icebreaker when we have arguments. Yogi has also caused friction between us, for example with my wife blaming me for his destructive puppy habits such as chewing the furniture. He has been so difficult at times that sending him back to the breeder was a constant possibility. Yogi, however, has taught me so much. For example, walking the streets and parks with him has made me realise the importance of being open to the people I meet, the benefits of being a good listener (talking to a dog is great therapy and a wonderful way to work though problems because dogs do not talk back), the importance of habits and routines (how winning the first hour of the day can make the rest of the day better), of being mindful of ourselves and our surroundings, of living in the moment and being grateful for what we have, and much more.I hope this work will appeal to readers who want to reflect on life and meaning, as well as those who like dogs and the benefits of simply walking around and really looking at our surroundings and the sky. And there is a happy conclusion, in that my wife and I remain married and Yogi has become a permanent part of the family.
