It's not every book of poetry that can make you laugh out loud. 

It's also not every book of poetry that contains poems allegedly written by dogs. 

But that is the story behind I Could Chew On This, Francesco Marciuliano's book from a few years ago. 

Marciuliano, also the writer of the comic strip "Sally Forth," applies a wild and wonderful sense of humor to his work.  And we are the beneficiaries.  This is a replay of our visit with the author--uh, dog interpreter--from 2013.
