World of Dogs by Lara Shannon
World of Dogs is a fun and quirky book that delves into the evolution and history of our canine companions, and also celebrates their roles in ancient and modern society across the globe. Since their domestication between 15,000 and 40,000 years ago, dogs have played an important role in lives of humans. World of Dogs features an incredible and unique selection of dog breeds, from Africa’s Abyssinian Sand Terrier and the Peruvian Inca Orchid, to the New Guinea Singing Dog and India’s pariah dog. You'll discover how certain dogs became some of the world’s most popular breeds, as well as some of the most famous canine friends who became household names in popular culture. Featuring illustrations by Wenjia Tang, World of Dogs is both an entertaining and educational look into the world of dogs, and you are guaranteed to learn something that you never knew about dogs before.
