Do you channel your dog? That is, do you speak to your dog and then respond as your dog? In Bedtime with Buster, author Brooks Eason does. And does he ever! In this hilarious, insightful new book, the author and his handsome hound Buster debate a number of existential questions for dogs: Why don't they live as long as people do? Why don't they have thumbs? Why can't mixed-breed dogs compete for Best in Show at Westminster? And what did a hound dog ever do to Elvis? Buster is both philosopher and humorist, a four-legged Mark Twain. Buster would be wise and funny if he were a human. For a canine, he's a doggone genius. Unfortunately, having been told all his life how handsome he is, Buster is also vain. He thinks of himself as a young Sean Connery. When he walks past a mirror, it's all he can do not to lick the glass. If you like dogs, funny stories, and great illustrations, you will love Bedtime with Buster. If you have any doubts, just ask Buster. He'll set you straight.
Autorenporträt
The Scoutmaster is Brooks Eason's fifth book. His first, Travels with Bobby, is about hiking trips in the mountains of the West with his best friend. Fortunate Son, his memoir about his adoption as an infant and discovery of his birth mother's identity when he was nearly fifty, was nominated by the Mississippi Institute of Arts and Letters for best nonfiction work. Bedtime with Buster consists of conversations between Brooks and his dearly departed dog and includes more than thirty marvelous illustrations of Buster by Atlanta artist Bob Fugate. Redemption - The Two Lives of Harry Brooks is a novel based on the life of his grandfather, who was a fugitive and felon in the first half of his life and a gifted Methodist preacher in the second. The Scoutmaster is the story of the wonderful life of his father, who served as a Boy Scout leader for more than sixty years and was an extraordinary influence on three generations of young men in his hometown. Brooks has three children and five grandchildren and lives in Madison, Mississippi, with his wife Carrie, three rescue dogs, and an orange tabby cat named the Count. In their spare time, Brooks and Carrie host house concerts, walk the dogs, and dance in the kitchen.
