Lonely Planet Kids Atlas of Dogs

Satisfy your canine curiosity with this who's who of dogs. This fully illustrated guide will take you on a woof-tastic journey around the world to meet over 150 weird and wonderful dog breeds— from the dapper Boston Terrier to the chirpy German Dachshund, the lively Portuguese Podengo, and the tiny but tough Australian Terrier.

Written by Frances Evans and featuring incredibly cute illustrations by Kelsey Heaton, this gorgeous hardcover atlas features large maps of each continent that show where each dog breed (both common and rare) is from. Follow-on pooch profiles then give the low-down on each one—their history, their physical characteristics, and their personality traits.
