Unleashed: Poems by Writers‘ Dogs
As with all collections, some were better than others. This was a fun and unique prompt to have all these writers explore, and their results ran the gamut from a very human voice to pure onomatopoeia. Most of the pieces were accompanied by photos of the dogs themselves, which was a really great inclusion. This was definitely cute, and would be a good gift for a dog lover.
