- Woof I Love Dogs. Published by Chronicle Books, $16.95.
Representing a wide range of breeds, the dogs in this book share a common trait: they are hams for the camera.
From the cutest puppies to the enormous Great Dane, each one of them shows off their personality in the photographs.
It doesn't hurt, either, when behind the lens are four outstanding photographers with a shared love of animals. Elliott Erwitt, Rachael Hale McKenna, Catherine Ledner and Gandee Vasan all contribute to this collection.
Complimenting the images are a selection of quotations that offer a nice interpretation of dogs and their roles.
- Meow I Love Cats, published by Chronicle Books, $16.95.
Serene in their indifference, confident in superiority, and assured of your devotion, cats hold a special place in the home.
Felines of all shapes and sizes are beautifully photographed in play and repose by photographers Rachael Hale McKenna, Catherine Ledner and Gandee Vasan.
Whether they are relaxing on a sofa or investigating a hole in the wall, these cats are all elegance, even while sleeping. This collection of photographs will delight any cat lover and perhaps some dog lovers as well.
