"This isn't the ��rst time a work has inspired me to adopt a dog; it is, however, the ��rst time I
imagined myself caring for a gentle giant of a dog, such as the beloved Danes showcased in Stone's
book: So Much to Drool About: Lessons for Living Large. There is so much clear wisdom in this
work, and with it a gentle encouragement to center oneself into what truly works in times of ease
and of distress. It brings to mind the thoughtfulness of Emerson and Thoreau, as well as a Mary
Oliver-like capacity to see the world through a lens broader than ours. This is a work for any
one of us, young or not so young, who seeks to settle oneself into a living that is rich, loving, and
uncomplicated with unnecessary inner turmoil." -Maria Sirois, Psy.D., Author of A Short Course in Happiness After Loss
You had me at "So Much to Drool About." This is the title of Barb Stone's new book about the
depth of what it really means to live life to the fullest. And can I say, the word that comes to mind
after spending time with this book is "BEAUTIFUL." The illustrations are beautiful, the dialogue
between the dogs is beautiful, and the beautiful and profound mic-drop wisdom sentences go
straight to the heart. Everytime.
And this is one of those books that speaks to all ages ... yes, it may appear like a children's book,
yet at its core it speaks to the sage in all of us ... and reminds us who we really are as human beings
on this magical path called life. I enjoyed reading and looking at every page... and will continue
to as I read this and share this with everyone in my life. -Dr. Rick Tamlyn, Hay House author of Play Your Bigger Game
"This book is absolutely wonderful! It teaches so many awesome lessons in the sweetest way.
I can't say enough good about it!" -Irene Scruton, Assistant Dean, School of Business, SUNY Oswego
A feel good read!
"Dog lover or not, So Much To Drool About is a reminder to keep looking for what is
amazing in one another, the lessons that can be learned through challenging moments and,
wherever you are, there is so much to be grateful for. I loved Barb's life messages through
the eyes of her Great Danes; an innocent and playful reminder to see the humanness (or
canine-ness) in us all!" -Amazon reviewer
A fun and inspiring read!
