Summary: No pug lover should be without this book!
Review: Nancy Levine has captured both the heart and soul of pugs everywhere with her wonderful photos of Wilson. This is a book that will not languish on your bookshelf after one reading, but will be enjoyed over and over again. The clever and sometimes profound (for a pug anyway) philosophy of Wilson will bring a smile to your face and stay with you long after you have finished the book. This is a perfect gift for the pug owner you need a present for, or for yourself if you are owned by a pug.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Short in stature but long on wisdom
Review: Pugs. Those famous, popular and funny looking canines. What a fun little book. My neice loves her little pug and I'm giving her the book for xmas. I'm just glad I bought it soon enough to first enjoy and explore it myself. Nice work. And a fabulous website too. (wilsonthepug.com)

Summary: Powerfully Hilarious and Inspiring!
Review: The Tao of Pug had me laughing and simulataneously being reminded of the rules of simplicity in life which are so essential to inner peace.

There is a Tao lesson at the top of each page, then an incredibly creative and clear picture in the middle of the page, and the caption of Wilson the Pug's actions/thoughts based on the Taoist philosophy as stated at the top of the page.

The Tao messages utilized in the book are well-picked; the pictures throughout the book are ever so creative and are of excellent resolution; the captions are hilarious and thought-provoking.

I highly recommend this book for all - pug owner or not! An exceptionally enjoyable book!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An Artistic Achievement
Review: This book is beautiful and funny. The author magically conveys such a strong sense of Wilson the Pug's character. What a delightful artistic achievement!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If you love pugs, you'll love The Tao of Pug
Review: This book is just delightful. The photographs are completely cute and clever, as are the quotes "from Wilson", giving his "puggish spin" on various quotes from Taoism. I live with a dog-phobic person, so I live vicariously through pug owners like Nancy Wilson so I so appreciate her sharing Wilson with us in such a delightful way!

Summary: I love Wilson!
Review: Tons of books about cute dogs with cute doggie pix can overwhelm a dog lover. What cuts Wilson's book out of the herd is its sweetness and Wilson's tart observations. It's a sweet-tart of a book! A perfect gift for all friends of animals and for those who appreciate hard-won wisdom. A great design doesn't hurt either. Long live Wilson and his great wisdom! Arf!

Summary: The Tao as Bedtime Story
Review: Who'd have thought the wisdom of the Tao would make a good bedtime story? Well, it did. I read the "Tao of Pug" with my 6-year-old twins last night and they loved it! Their Dad read the Tao lines, his low voice emanating the wisdom of the ancient teachings. Peter and Victoria read Wilson's interpretations, their little voices perfectly capturing the innocence and sweetness of Wilson's personna. In between, we all giggled as we saw Wilson licking his chops at a turtle -- then letting it pass by, unhurt; exploring a paper bag with only his wagging tail visible; and otherwise learning his way around life's important lessons.
