After the release of Yellowdog, Debra Marlin's beautiful photographic homage to her beloved golden retriever Sonny, Marlin was unsure of her next project. Finally, she found guidance in an unusual doggy dream:
A bit mystified at first at the large dark object with two even darker orifices on either side, I relaxed even further and the image became clearer. The object was Sonny's big black nose.... I had waited so long to be visited by him in his own time, but he hadn't come. And then suddenly there he was.... I was incredulous. Not only was this a visit from Sonny, but it was also an indicator of my path. "But, Sonny, I've already done this Yellowdog thing," I said to him. His smiling face beamed even brighter. "Okay," I said, resigning myself. "I guess I'll just go with the flow."
Enter River, a bold, brash young retriever whose adorable puppy maneuvers Marlin chronicles in Yellowpup. As if golden pups aren't already extremely cute to begin with, throw in Marlin's keen black-and-white photography skills--and the obvious affection she holds for her subject--and this photographic essay is downright irresistible. Whether romping in the water or digging on the dunes, pounding down a path or hanging with his three older siblings, River's "playful romp through puppydom" will capture your heart.--Stefanie Hargreaves
Book Description
Everyone loves puppies and golden retrievers are one of the most popular breeds of dogs. Debra Marlins photographs capture the spirit of puppydom. She has captured puppies running on the beach, lying on the porch, sitting in the water, splashing in the ocean, playing hide and seek in the woods, at play, and asleep, but always in tune with their lovable nature. With a playful text about the joys and pitfalls of raising a puppy, Yellowpup is a natural follow-up to the successful Yellowdog.
