In twenty-five poems\, Collins distills the many ways dogs warm our hearts\, from the happiness we experience as we watch a dog run unencumbered by our burdens\, to the silliness of cradling a dog in our arms as we step on the scale together. Turning his inimitable eye and ear to the complexities of dog behavior\, Collins ponders all that these winning creatures give us and what we learn from them about ourselves. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFor more than four decades Collins has delighted readers with his insight\, wit\, and clear poetic voice. In Dog Show\, “America’s favorite poet” ( The Wall Street Journal) illuminates America’s favorite pet (sorry\, cat lovers). Accompanied by Pamela Sztybel’s watercolors\, which effortlessly depict a dog’s humble grace\, Dog Show reveals the profound role these majestic animals play in our lives and the meaning they give us. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE POET\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBILLY COLLINS is the author of fifteen collections of poetry\, including Sailing Alone Around the Room\, Aimless Love and\, most recently\, Water\, Water. He served two terms as United State Poet Laureate and is a former Distinguished Professor of English at Lehman College and New York State Poet.
