Awarded the Maxwell Medallion and Voted "Best Children's Book" by the Dog Writers Association of America. Mary-Alice and her friends like pretty clothes and hanging with the in-crowd, but when she requests a puppy for her birthday, her parents decide the fluffy one with the pink bow in the pet store window may not be the best choice. Instead, Mary-Alice ends up at the local Animal Shelter where she not only saves the life of a loving older dog, but learns that once you look beyond the plain cover of things, you can be treated to the true joys that lie underneath! Looking beyond the cover is truly canine in that dogs do not judge others based on their income, beauty or status. They live in the moment, rejoicing in every kindness they are shown. Humans, young and not-so-young, can learn pawmazing lessons from our four-legged friends when they Don't Judge a Book by its Cover

Don't Judge a Book by Its Cover | Denise Fleck

I am going through this phase where I am buying books based on visual appeal and not much more. I've found I have even looked up book descriptions multiple times, decided it's not my type of book, and then still considered buying it anyway! Sprayed edges are the thing I am currently trying to avoid becoming obsessed with, but it's hard! 😩 Has anyone else fallen victim to this??

Dr.Who_number10 UHMMMM what reader hasn‘t!!!??? Guilty is charged right here😂😂 7y
Drebae29 Yessss 7y

Eyelit I‘ve totally purchased books just based on the cover 😄 7y
StephanieGeiser Dumb question- What are sprayed edges? 7y
SaturnDoo I am a cover lover and judge books by the covers. A lot of my books were bought strictly for the cover. 7y
ReadingDiva I‘m definitely guilty!! 7y
ReadingOver50 I recently read Scythe simply because I loved the cover 7y
Astroneman Yes, yes and yes!!!! 7y
ju.ca.no I buy a lot of my books based on their looks, but so far ut worked well most of the times and I ended up with books that are pretty on the outside and the inside😍 7y
Lizpixie Even though I buy books based on content, I admit to looking through numerous online sellers to find the prettiest copy! And I have bought before based on looks(The Library At Mount Char, My Best Friends Exorcism & The Silent Companions are a few)and lucked out that they were great reads as well!👍 7y
gibblr @StephanieGeiser The books that have colored edges of pages. It's even worse in that I recently watched a tutorial and now want to do it myself to my books 🤦🏻‍♀️ haha 7y
gibblr @tournevis Ahhhh! Why'd you do that to me?!? Hahaha 7y
tournevis @gibblr Sorry! (Not sorry. 😋) 7y

Okay, now I'm officially caught up and promise to stop filling your feed with quotes. You can imagine why I picked this one for #cliche. Alternate version is "Don't judge a book by its cover." But we never do that, right?

BarbaraTheBibliophage @melrailey Me too! I have to force myself to read the blurb. 7y
rubyslippersreads Don't they design book covers these days so you WILL judge (and hopefully buy)? It's pretty easy to tell a thriller or YA or Christian fiction or lots of other genres from the cover art. 7y
Kodak2057 One of the popsugar prompts for the 2018 reading challenge is to read a book with an ugly cover 😂 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @rubyslippersreads They sure do - as a former marketing professional, I can guarantee you that. I always love the YA covers, but not the books. Gotta watch myself! 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Kodak2057 I noticed that! I'm considering doing @popsugar2018 instead of some other challenges, just for a change next year. 7y
