The irresistible illustrated diary of one very special London dog--the perfect gift book for dog lovers of all stripes (and spots!)Hello. My name is Plum and I'm a whoosell--a whippet mixed with Jack Russell and poodle. I especially like swimming, leaping, and croissants, and my favorite fragrance is fox poop. I live with Emma, an illustrator, and Rupert in London.Over the last year, I've been keeping a diary. Emma helped with the pictures, but the words are all mine.Since 2012 Emma Chichester Clark has been delighting followers with her blog Plumdog, which records the adventures, discoveries, wry observations, and social engagements of her dog, Plum. Now Plum's best pages are collected in this beautiful little storybook volume, which will delight anyone who has ever loved a dog.

The thing about anthropomorphic animal books is that I'm always wary of it being cringey or twee. This graphic novel by a British children's author and illustrator hits all the right notes, though: charming, sweet, and just adorable, with the right kind of wit and humour. Plum is such a delight. I love the panel above for that glimpse into her "character". @Lindy has posted some excerpts here that showcases the beautiful art. Lovely comfort read.

Lindy ❤️Nice to be reminded of this adorable book. I‘m finding all graphic novels comforting these days. 4y
erzascarletbookgasm The illustrations are absolutely gorgeous! I‘ve not gotten to read this but just browse at the illustrations. 😍 4y
batsy @Lindy Yes, I've read this and some middle-grade conics and even a picture book and there's just something about looking at art in these times ❤️ 4y

I love going to the bookshop, partly because I love the smell of books, but also because I have noticed that people who like books are often very fond of dogs.

We went to stay with our friends in the country for New Year‘s Eve. It was just as comfy as I remembered. The chairs and sofas are for dogs, unlike at our house.
(From the diary of a dog. 😜)

This is totally a #blameitonlitsy read. It was completely delightful and sweet. Plum is adorable and her diary for the year is both funny and just what I imagine my own silly, much loved dog would write.

jessberk13 Plumdog! A friend used to call me this because my last name is Plumley and Slumdog Millionaire was a thing at the time. Lol 7y

A cute book, with great illustrations. A nice relaxing read, appropriate for all ages although too long for most young children. I like that it's a snap shot of a dogs life and offers small lessons without being preachy

acg Your dog is soooo cute and fluffy! 8y

Plumdog by Emma Chichester Clark is an absolutely delightful graphic novel! Plum, a whippet mixed with Jack Russell and poodle, shares a year's worth of diary entries that will remind any dog owner of her own pooch's quirks.
