Cute in concept, but the poems themselves were not my cup of tea. The illustrations were my favorite part.

Real quick I want to thank NetGalley and the publishers for this arc in exchange for an honest review.
5 STARS!
This book is perfect for anybody who has a furbaby they love dearly and wholly.
When I began reading this book I didn’t expect it to be some from the dogs’ point of view. I adored this book. While reading this book, I felt so many different emotions. It is also almost a year since my own furbaby had to have a surgery to save her life. This book isn’t just words. It’s feelings and emotions every dog owner has felt in one way or another. All the different stories/poems were told so well and very descriptive of the dog. I loved this book and read it one sitting.
This book reminded me of all the good times I’ve ever had with any dog and how dogs are too good for us. I’ve always said, “Dogs are a part of our lives, but we are their whole world.” and this book really defines that. I will be getting this book in paperback for my shelf seeing as me and my furbaby/reading buddy Gretchy had fun reading it. So I for sure highly recommend this read!

All Dogs Are Good is a beautiful collection of poems and prose by Courtney Peppernell, a tribute to man’s best friend and those who love/have loved them. There are beautiful pieces from the eyes of dogs and from those who have had dogs, of old dogs finding new homes, a person getting their first puppy, losing your best friend and the day to day joys of having a dog.
I laughed, I cried and I most definitely loved this collection.
I have a dog, an old girl getting up in years and I found sadness and peace in this book about what that means. ‘Are you home yet?’ made me cry tears of both joy and sorrow, by far my favorite, but not my only one. If you love dogs, have a dog, miss a dog this beautiful collection may just be for you.

For anyone who has ever loved a dog, this book is a poignant adventure into the joys and sorrows of that one of a kind relationship. While the poetry isn't always clever, Courtney Peppernell is remarkably good at capturing the straightforward love between a dog and its person. I found myself reminiscing about my own first dog often and occasionally wiping away tears. This is a good book to read with a pup in your lap.
