Fabulous!, 2007-08-20
The photography is fabulous. That alone would be enough for me to give this book 5 stars, but it doesn't stop there. The charm and humor of the captions that go along with each photograph are exceptional. If you love pugs this is a book you will truly enjoy.

I purchased this book for my mother in law who has Alzheimers. She owns a pug & loves to look at pictures of pugs. She has enjoyed this book very much. The pictures are great.
