Book Review

 I am sorry that the book review is late. Yesterday I had a really bad day at work, and I didn't feel like doing anything except listening to Jazz when I got home.

The book this week is "The Pug Who Bit Napoleon: Animal Tales Of The 18th & 19th Centuries" written by Mimi Matthews. This book has several short chapters with true stories of animals that played an important role in people's lives. I especially enjoyed the chapters on the animals associated with Alexander Pope, Lord Byron and Charles Dickens. 

Throughout the book, there are pictures of how 18th and 19th century artists represented animals. This is an interesting book that I recommend to you.
