There are a lot of gifts you could give this holiday season, but when it comes to something really meaningful, there’s nothing quite like the gift of a book you’ve made yourself. But before you start having visions of gluing and sewing together pages, check out the Blurb Gift Center and see how easy it is to make an original holiday gift this year!

Getting inspired with the Blurb Gift Center

Blurb lets you make seriously beautiful books using their free tools. Just add photos and text, choose your options (like paper and cover type), and then order. Of course, you do have to decide just what kind of book you want to make. But relax, because they have put together the cool Blurb Gift Center to give you lots of ideas:

  • Since “pets are the new kids” you could make a beautiful gift book for your favorite pet parents.
  • If you’ve got a genealogy buff in the family, there’s the Blurb Family History Book.
  • For those with newborns (or those that know someone with a newborn), a Blurb Baby Book might be just the thing.
  • And if you’re the kind of person who keeps getting asked for copies of your recipes, think about making a Blurb Food Book.
  • This holiday season, make your gift recipients feel really special by making them something special. There really is a book for everyone.

THROW THE DAMN BALL: Classic Poetry by Dogs

Throw The Damn Ball

I don’t know about you, but I love this time of year because of all the great dog-related gift books that are released in time for the holiday shopping season! We were happy to get our paws on the fun and funky new book Throw The Damn Ball: Classic Poetry by Dogs from best-selling authors R. D. Rosen, Harry Prichett and Rob Battles.

It’s a collection of humorous poetry and cute color photos, perfect as a stocking stuffer for any dog-loving poetry buff on your list. The clever and amusing poems pay tribute to the important things that really matter to a dog — love, loss, sex, friendship, meals, and bodily functions. Literary fans will recognize a dog’s take on some of the classics in human poetry including an homage to Emily Dickinson and other great poets.  I’d recommend this book for adults only, as some of the dog humor is a bit explicit, but probably exactly what a dog would write about LOL! It’s a quick read and great as a bathroom book, as Woof Woof Papa pointed out. (TMI, I know!)

Throw The Damn Ball: Classic Poetry by Dogs is available now in hardcover at Amazon and local bookstores.

too cute puppies and kittens books

Warning: These books contain material that is just TOO cute! Reader discretion is advised.

Are you a fan of the Animal Planet TV series, Too Cute? We are! Woof Woof Papa and I love watching it whenever we can catch it and get so carried away cooing and ooohing and aahing over the ridiculous and adorable antics of the new puppies and kitties each week that Daisy often starts hunting around trying to figure out the cause of such a fuss! She hasn’t figured out how to watch TV yet so she doesn’t know what she’s missing. You can probably guess how excited I was to receive early review copies of the new books based on the series, and as you can see, Daisy couldn’t wait to get her paws on them either!

Daisy, reading Animal Planet Too Cute Puppies book

Whether you’ve caught the show or not, you won’t want to miss these super CUTE new hardcover books Animal Planet’s TOO CUTE PUPPIES and TOO CUTE KITTENS (Harlequin Nonfiction; on sale Oct 29). They are perfect for keeping on the nightstand or coffee table as a quick pick me up when you are feeling the Monday blues or just need an extra smile. It’s like an instant hug! They are also a great gift idea for pet lovers of any age and would make an ideal stocking stuffer, teacher gift or thoughtful way of thanking your dog groomer, favorite vet tech or other human in your fur kid’s life.

Both books are also great for reading aloud together with younger children, since there are photos with entertaining captions, facts and anecdotes on each page. Early readers and older kiddos will love the books too!

These impossibly adorable books are just right for anyone who needs a little—or a lot—of extra cuteness in their life! Both Too Cute Puppies and Too Cute Kittens are available at Amazon and your local bookstore.
