"Little Kids and 100 Big Dogs" tweaks the very idea of an encyclopedia and solves an almost impossible task: making a compendium about dog breeds that is interesting and colorful. In this fascinating reference book -- based on photographs from Andy Seliverstoff's celebrated three-volume "Little Kids and Their Big Dogs" series -- dogs are not soulless sets of historical facts and disembodied traits, but lively beings with bright and unique characteristics. The work on this book, which took four years, turned into a living project with a huge body of admirers. Thousands of followers on social-media networks kept up with its progress, celebrating its unique communication between children and dogs. "Little Kids and 100 Big Dogs" highlights 100 of some of the largest breeds in the world, including some very rare ones. (Some smaller breeds are also included, because of their outsized personalities: In their minds, they tower over the greatest Dane.) Books have always been a link between time and space. They make it possible to travel, immersing readers in new secrets and new realities. When readers close this encyclopedia, turning the last pages of its journey with heroes both small and large, these stories will have already become a part of their lives. Perhaps some breeds will remain just a compilation of facts and figures, but it's our hope some bright images will suddenly appear in a corner of your consciousness, and your soul filled with warmth, feeling itself a part of the universe in which little kids and their big dogs live - the heroes of "the kindest book about big dogs." Breeds included are the Afghan Hound; Airedale Terrier; Akita Inu; Alaskan Malamute; American Akita; American Bulldog; American Pit Bull Terrier; American Staffordshire Terrier; Australian Cattle Dog; Australian Shepherd; Azawakh; Basset Hound; Bavarian Mountain Scent Hound; Beauceron; Belgian Shepherd Dog;Berger Picard; Bernese Mountain Dog; Black Russian Terrier; Bloodhound; Boerboel; Borzoi; Bracco Italiano; Briard; Bull Terrier; Bulldog; Bullmastiff; Ca de Bou; Cane Corso; Caucasian Shepherd Dog; Central Asian Shepherd Dog; Chinese Shar-Pei; Chongqing Dog; Rough Collie; Smooth Collie; Czechoslovakian Wolfdog; Dalmatian; Doberman Pincher; Dogo Argentino; Dogue de Bordeaux; Dutch Shepherd Dog; East European Shepherd; English Setter; English Springer Spaniel; Fila Brasileiro; Finnish Lapphund; Flat-Coated Retriever; German Shepherd Dog; German Shorthaired Pointer; German Wirehaired Pointer; Giant Schnauzer; Golden Retriever; Gordon Setter; Great Dane; Great Pyrenees; Greyhound; Hortaya Borzaya; Hovawart; Ibizan Hound; Irish Setter; Irish Wolfhound; Kangal Shepherd Dog; Keeshond; Kerry Blue Terrier; Komondor; Labrador Retriever; Leonberger; Maremmano-Abruzzese Sheepdog; Mastiff; Moscow Watchdog; Neapolitan Mastiff; Newfoundland; Norwegian Elkhound; Old English Sheepdog; Peruvian Inca Orchid; Pharaoh Hound; Pointer; Poodle; Portuguese Water Dog; Presa Canario; Rhodesian Ridgeback; Rottweiler; Saluki; Samoyed; Siberian Husky; Skye Terrier; Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier; South Russian Shepherd Dog; Spanish Mastiff; St. Bernard; Tatra Shepherd Dog; Thai Ridgeback; Tibetan Mastiff; Tosa Inu; Vizsla; Weimaraner; Welsh Springer Spaniel; Whippet; White Swiss Shepherd Dog; Xoloitzcuintle, and Yakutian Laika.

A comprehensive compendium of canine varieties—from purebreds to designer doodles—from the acclaimed author of The Spirit of the Dog. One glance around the local park will confirm that man’s best friend comes in many varieties. As the first animal domesticated by humans, dogs have been selectively bred for tens of thousands of years to be herders, hunters, guard dogs, and friends. The result is a plethora of breeds that are as different as the pint-sized chihuahua and the massive St. Bernard. Now there is a guide to each of them. Dogs Unleashed contains all the information required to differentiate breeds of canine. From the standard poodle to the Finnish spitz, readers will become experts of identification. Alongside beautiful photography, discover information on conformation, history, temperament, health risks, and more. This book even contains a section on today’s designer breeds like the labradoodle, the puggle, and the cockapoo. Ideal for researching a new family pet, or for general knowledge, this book reveals which dogs are the most expensive to keep, which are the best swimmers, and which breed has the longest life expectancy.

"How the Rhodesian Ridgeback Got Its Ridge" is a charmingly illustrated and cleverly written fable, about how this breed of dog from southern Africa got the trademark stripe of hair on its back. In this whimsical creation tale, God surveys the various dogs He has created, and, in ticking off their idiosyncracies, decides to try one more time in creating the perfect canine. But in making a dog that is as smart as it is beautiful, God sets the stage for a mishap that leads to unintended consequences. If you love Ridgebacks and want to share that passion with a younger generation - or if you just love a clever story, beautifully told and illustrated - this is the book for you.

As a preteen Black male growing up in Mount Vernon, New York, there were a series of moments, incidents and wounds that caused me to retreat inward in despair and escape into a world of imagination. For five years I protected my family secrets from authority figures, affluent Whites and middle class Blacks while attending an unforgiving gifted-track magnet school program that itself was embroiled in suburban drama. It was my imagination that shielded me from the slights of others, that enabled my survival and academic success. It took everything I had to get myself into college and out to Pittsburgh, but more was in store before I could finally begin to break from my past. "Boy @ The Window" is a coming-of-age story about the universal search for understanding on how any one of us becomes the person they are despite-or because of-the odds. It's a memoir intertwined with my own search for redemption, trust, love, success-for a life worth living. "Boy @ The Window" is about one of the most important lessons of all: what it takes to overcome inhumanity in order to become whole and human again.
