Dog Trots Globe – To Paris & Provence (A Sheltie Goes to France) is the story of Chula, a 9-year-old Sheltie, as she travels from California to France. “This lively and often funny adventure finds Chula sniffing around the boulangeries, lavender fields, and big outdoor markets of Provence. In Paris, she trots across the Seine, stands on her hind legs in awe of the Eiffel Tower, and attends opening night at a gallery. Through vivid color photographs and Chula’s unique perspective, you’ll experience Paris and Provence in a delightful way.”
Basically, it’s a a fun story written from a dog’s eye view of France. The story is illustrated by colorful breathtaking photos of Paris and Provence. We learn about the region through Chula’s experiences.
My Thoughts: I had chosen to review this book for several reasons. First, I love travel and secondly because I find people are fascinated by stories written through an animals perspective. I wanted to test the waters and I’m glad I did. The book chronicles Chula’s journey from California to France. Although written for adults, it’s an easy and fun read for kids as well. My boys loved the photos and reading about France. They wanted to know how the author knew what Chula was thinking. We had a good time reading it together and they picked it up on their own several times just to look at their favorite photos. I have to say that I can see why people enjoy reading stories from an animals perspective. It was more fun to learning about France through Chula’s point of view than from a humans. The book also comes with extra features that you can view online. The reading experience was enhanced by watching the short videos available as extras. Truly, a good read for families and animal lovers. You can also see what else Chula is up to on Facebook by clicking HERE.
