Simon & Schuster Spotlight Announces the Release of "Small Dog, Big Life: Memoirs of a Furry Genius"

The first ever tell-all by a dog, Small Dog, Big Life is now available nationwide.

New York, NY (PRWEB) May 14, 2009 -- Simon & Schuster Spotlight announces the release of Small Dog, Big Life: Memoirs of a Furry Genius, available now in bookstores across the country.

Barktated by Genevieve, a brilliant seven-pound papillon, to Dr. Dennis Fried, a typically dumb human, Small Dog, Big Life has been called (by Genevieve herself) "the funniest book ever written by a dog."

In Small Dog, Big Life Genevieve invites you into the inner sanctum of dogdom, revealing canine secrets never before shared with humans, while also passing on her devious tricks-of-the-trade to her legions of furry fans.

In her bitingly funny memoir, Genevieve sinks her teeth into such topics as driving tips for dogs, the tragedy of doorbells in TV commercials, measuring the intelligence of humans, finding a reason for cats, converting your house into an agility course, and productive kitchen behavior. Throughout, Genevieve unleashes a scathing analysis of human culture, while inspiring canines everywhere to rise up and assume their rightful places as heads of the household.

Insightful, entertaining, and peppered with sophistication, wit, and charm, Small Dog, Big Life is not only for animal lovers of all ages but for anyone who appreciates an ironic sense of humor. And, ultimately, through Genevieve's "words," it is a celebration of the wondrous and loving relationship between dogs and their people.

Genevieve Highpoint La Reine is the proud holder of a degree in basic obedience--and is even prouder of never using it. She resides in Sarasota, Florida, and her favorite hobbies are eating and sleeping. Dr. Dennis Fried is Genevieve's translator and typist. He holds advanced degrees in physics and philosophy, all of which have gone totally to waste. When not helping Genevieve with her career, he can usually be found pestering her for a raise. He resides in Sarasota with his wife, Katrina, and his boss, Genevieve.
