Read what people are saying about A Dog’s Book of Wisdom, Volume 1
“What a great little book.
I watched Margaret walk by my house hundreds of times and quite often would speak to her. My dog, Trudie, would always attempt to connect with her only to be ignored as Margaret did not believe that Trudie was a dog.
We loved Margaret and were blessed with her wisdom and humor.
This was the best book I have read in many years. A pure joy.”
— John C.
“Dear Tom,
Your friend Margaret is so astute in assessing people and situations that I think she will become very well known, indeed!”
— Joe G.
“I can attest that not only did my 9 year old daughter pick it up, but my 7 year old daughter did as well. Both are big book lovers. Together, they reenact the stories from the book. Very cute to watch. As a parent, A Dog’s Book of Wisdom is a great read out loud and holds the attention of myself and the kiddos; a perfect match.”
— Brian P.
“I loved this book so much!!! As someone with two pugs it was such a great and fun read. I read it first and then went back and read it again and it resonated differently with me a month later. Definitely great for kids and people of all ages. Love it!!!”
— Lizzy L.
“Dog’s Book of Wisdom is a great book. Both funny and applicable, it will make you laugh and think. 10 out of 10 stars.”

“I give this book 4 out of 4 paws, though if I were a poodle I’d give it 0 paws.”
Marlo C., age 10
“Witty, thought-provoking, and a real joy to read. Margaret offers wisdom inspired by Michel de Montaigne, reminding us of the importance of being good, rather than right. I loved the chapters on different paths leading to the same place, the foolishness in trying to make someone into something they're not, and the precious silence we have with the ones we love.”
Alex H.
