Approving Dog
Chet Baker's First Book Review, as dictated to JZ:
Here's the thing. Most of Mether's books don't do much for me. I look at them when she is away, right after I get up on the kitchen table to see if there are any Cheerios left from breakfast. But I would rather nap than read most of her books. She does not let me chase birds, and most of them are about birds.
This book came in the mail the other day. I thought it might be liver treats, but it was something better. It is different from the rest of the books I have seen. It is by some friends of mine, Sharon and Bill, people who really ought to have a Boston terrier instead of a grumpy old red bunneh.
This book has pictures of bunnehs. Lots of pictures of them, especially of their lips. Bunnehs have cute lips.
Each picture has a caption. Some of which make me laugh out loud.
Some of them I do not get, but I think that is because they do not make sense anyway.
Bunnehs, you should try approving of something now and then. It takes more muscles to frown than to smile. Boston terriers approve of almost everything except kennels and vacuum cleaners. I approve of Disapproving Rabbits.
You should get your own copy of Disapproving Rabbits from Sharon. She will sign it for you. I can tell you that you are not getting my copy. Even when I am asleep, I keep it near.

Slumber Puppy ! That last picture is absolutely priceless.
This is wonderful! I love that Chet approved this book! So when are we going to see a disapproving baker book?
What a ham that Chet Baker is--all those poses! And the sleeping pose--priceless.
A Chet Baker fix, wunnerful, wunnerful I was LOL with those precious pixs. It is great Chet has a book of his own, signed no less, does he let Liam and Chloe look at it?

I should be so loved to be as a dog in your home. You must've been enjoying a fall day together--nothing better than snuggling in with a good book!
Chet has good taste in books!
OK...OK...THIS BLOG HAS REACHED A NEW....EVEN HIGHER LEVEL!...A book reviewing dog....complete with pictres of the Reviewer and Reviewee. Great read on a Saturday morning, Chet. Pass that on to Julie will you?!
Your post is just too cute!
I love Chet's expressions. If I can see more of those please tell him I'll send him my library card!
My only regret about these photos is that it isn't clear that Our Distinguished Reviewer is swaddled in a Scooby-Doo fleece blanket. Ruh-roh! Retake!
Chet Baker and bunnehs... awwwwwwww
anyway, I actually meant to send this comment for the prior post but it slipped by:
love deer and the way these large creatures quickly materialize and disappear into thin air in the woods (although more often here we see them as carcasses along the side of the road :-(((
Anyway, Christmas isn't far off, and a couple of beautiful books with deer photos for young children, if you're not already familiar with them, are:
"Stranger in the Woods" and "Lost In the Woods," both by Carl R. Sams
What an amazing little pup Chet Baker is. I love the way he "smiles" when he's sleeping. Thanks for a fun post and a good book review.
That Chet Baker has such good taste in literature. And i would love to see him in the Scooby Doo blankie!
OH! MY! WORD!
I'm so impressed Chet Baker didn't eat the book, that is high praise!
Thanks and now I wonder? How soon until this wonder pooch has his own book?
Best. Review. Ever.
Ruh-roh!? That sounds like the Scooby talking game we play in the car. Talk Scooby about something you see out the car window and the other person has to guess what you are talking about. Rhet Raker roves runnies! hahaha
Book critic now, ey? Monarch had a good suggestion - what about a Disapproving Baker Book? LOL!
Chet Baker needs his own picture book with captions. It would be an easy one for you, Julie. Think about it. You are both naturals at entertaining. You are the genius behind the ham.
