Product Description

Stella’s got an opinion on everything: the baby (“cannot be trusted near tail”), her humans, the other pets, her sleeping requirements (“But for a truly peaceful rest, be advised: Your bed is best”), undignified doggie sweaters, and the dull dryness of kibble. She even waxes poetic on the exalted status of pups in Paris, who are welcome everywhere…even in restaurants. And thanks to author Linda Ashman, who practically channels the canine mind, Stella expresses it all in a series of humorous verses that will have dog-loving kids laughing out loud. Add Paul Meisel’s fabulous illustrations, which convey every facet of Stella’s winning, wonderful, and wickedly funny personality, and who could resist?

Customer Reviews

Great for parents and kids5
I picked this book up on a whim at IKEA of all places. As the guardian of a 9-year old lab/pit mix and now mother to a 10 month baby girl, I found this book refreshing among our color, ABC and farm animal books. It is entertaining for me as I can imagine our dog doing and thinking everything in the book and our daughter loves pointing out all the doggies on the pages. The poems are easy and fun to read. A crowd pleaser all around!

Funny, Fantastic Poems by a Clever Dog!5
We just love "Stella's" poetry - another amazing book by our favorite writer for children, Linda Ashman!
Kids and parents alike will laugh at Stella's wit, as she poetically and cleverly comments about her life from a dog's-eye view! Perfectly captures the enchanting experience of having a family dog. Charming illustrations, too!

A great child's book5
I just bought this book for a friend's pre-school aged child. He really enjoyed the book, especially since his dog's name is Stella! The book was well written. It included short and varied chapters about Stella's daily activities and relationship with her various family members.
