Beautiful for meditation & reflection
The photos accompanying each reflection are beautiful. The reflections themselves are short and meaningful. Each provides wonderful material for a period of silence and thoughtfulness. I find that spending time reflecting on a single passage before starting my day is an incredible way to stay more awake and conscious throughout the day.

The best dog gone training books.
I raise puppies for a guide dog school and I also teach other raisers how to train their dogs. I always suggest any books by the Monks of New Skete. They teach love and consistency, exactly what a puppy needs.

a must read for those considering a puppy
if all people read this book prior to adopting (purchasing) a puppy the pet control situation would be helped ten fold every year until eternity. this book not only guides those who have a puppy but shows how to chose a puppy for a particular lifestyle.

Can't go wrong with these monks
It seems the Monks of New Skete can do no wrong when it comes to writing great books. This book is of the inspirational variety, and contains some very thought provoking statements. I found myself thinking "duh; that is 100% true! Why didn't I think of it like that?" The photography is excellent also. Some very true words of wisdom can be found in the pages of I & Dog.
