Review # 1 was written on 2020-01-08 00:00:00 Paul Dye I have had this on my bookshelf for years, and have just now gotten around to reading it. The linocut illustrations were the perfect accompaniment to this book of dog poetry. It included quite a range of authors and styles, some of which I liked very much; others I did not care for. A quick, pleasant read.

Review # 2 was written on 2013-10-12 00:00:00 William Francis Short But Sweet "Doggerel" is a small collection of 19 poems about dogs. Some of the pieces are sentimental, others are strange, and some are downright silly - but they're all enjoyable. The accompanying illustrations are a bit of a disappointment, though - a little too cartoonishly abstract for my taste - and they don't really complement the poetry. "Doggerel" is worth the money, as long as you can find a cheap copy.
