Kristen Bakis wrote this amazing book called The Lives of the Monster Dogs. She never wrote anything else, and I just lucked out to find it on a remainder table one day. It's since become one of my all time favorites. I can highly recommend Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night.

Thanks. Nise: I have had Curious Dog on my shelf for far too long! And also I bought Marley and Me when it first came out...don't know why I haven't read it yet!

(Just finished it, in fact.) How perfect is this, a memoir <a href="http://www.billseaton.com" rel="nofollow"> about life behind the scenes at the San Diego zoo!</a> It's called My Seven Years in Captivity" and is by the man who handled PR for the zoo. He had a number of interesting encounters in those years, of course. Enjoy stories with fun titles such as "The Pink Panda" and "Our Man-Eating Duck." It's perfect, I tell you, just perfect.
