Throw the Damn Ball : Classic Poetry Book by Dogs (Hardcover)

Throw the Damn Ball is a best-of-breed collection that no dog lover should be without. Bestselling authors R. D. Rosen, Harry Prichett, and Rob Battles have assembled the wittiest and wisest-cracking dog poetry ever. Featuring funky photos of the four-legged authors, this volume will make you howl with joy, bark with laughter, and beg for more. A hilarious collection of poetry by dogs--the perfect gift for lovers of literature and pups alike. "Dogs seldom make passes At dogs passing gasses." Are these the words of Dorothy Parker? Ogden Nash? Nope, the author is Sparky from Milton, Pennsylvania. Sparky, Snowy, Tucker, Louie, these canine laureates have written a volume of poetry displaying the brilliance and wit we've always suspected our dogs were hiding from us. They also, it turns out, revere the human geniuses who came before them, as you'll see with "There Is No Frigate Like A Pavement"--an homage to Emily Dickinson--and "Do Not Go Gentle." Yes, Dylan Thomas would love it.
