 Change how you see the world

"This is the sweetest little book! I love my copy. Your collage work and storytelling is sublime. Kisses to Miss Agatha."
— Valerie B.

Walking the dog can be a pleasant break, provide exercise and time outdoors ... but it can also be a chore.

I know that's how it felt for me, especially when it came to walking with Agatha ... my nose-to-the-ground, scent-sniffing basset hound who liked to sniff and smell all the smells.

More often than not, we did a whole lot of stopping and not a lot of walking. It was frustrating, really frustrating ... until I started looking around and discovered all there was to see.

It changed everything.

Dog lovers! Nature lovers! This book will change how you see the world around you.
