WHY WE LOVE DOGS
Book ID/图书代码： 00450004B05151
English Summary/英文概要： This endearing gift book celebrates the unique connection between dogs and their human companions.
There are reasons dogs are our best friends: They are loyal, affectionate, and totally committed to us. Or as photographer/writer Kim Levin puts it: "Because they look us in the eye." "Because they have wrinkles, too." "Because they are family."
In this charming book, Levin artfully combines photographs with simple, insightful prose; the result is an ode that celebrates the wonders of dogs. Soulful beagle eyes. A grinning hound luxuriating in the sun. In these poignant photos, Levin captures each dog’s essence and illuminates the myriad reasons why we love dogs.
In America alone, 40 million people own more than 50 million dogs. Of those dedicated dog owners, about 13 million Americans say they’re as attached to their dogs as they are to their best friends; some six million people rank their dogs right up there with their children. That’s why everyone who has ever cherished a beloved dog-whether large or small, pure-bred or mutt-will delight in this book filled with heartwarming words and pictures to commemorate their special closeness.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 这本可爱的书描绘了狗狗们和主人们之间的特别联系。狗狗是人类最好的朋友：这是有原因的：他们很忠诚、他们极富感情、对人类承诺终身。就像摄影社/作家Kim Levin所说的：“因为他们能看着我们的眼睛。”“因为他们是我们的家人。”
在这本美美的书里，Levin将摄影照片融入了文字中，创造出了这无与伦比的作品。通灵的猎兔犬的眼睛。露齿而笑的狗狗在阳光下嬉闹。在这些打动人心的照片中，Levin抓住了每一只狗狗的天性并展现了我们为什么要爱狗的理由。
仅仅在美国，四千万居民拥有超过五千万条狗。在那些狗主人当中，大约有一千三百万美国人说他们跟自己的狗狗产生了心理联系，狗狗已成为他们最好的朋友；大约六百万人将狗狗放在和孩子一样的地位。所以每个有过爱狗的人都会很喜爱这本充满爱意的书和里面的每张图片。(兼职翻译-LN)
