This book came across my life thru my beloved one - gata. She lended it to me during this weekend and last night (it was about 3:30 AM) I looked at it and started reading.
Este livro entrou na minha vida graças à minha adorada - gata. Ela emprestou-mo durante este fim de semana, e ontem à noite (por volta das 3:30 da madrugada) olhei para ele e comecei a ler.
I must say I enjoyed some of the thoughts that Michael Leunig shares with us. I like the idea of looking at animals as our most trustful spiritual leaders. I loved the pyjamas theory. I was touched by the story of the man pleading for punishment to a dog and receiving love instead... And so many more touching stories that, sometimes, made me really think about LIFE!
Devo dizer que gostei bastante de alguns dos pensamentos que o Michael Leunig partilha connosco. Adorei a ideia de ver os animais como os nossos melhores líderes espirituais. Adorei a teoria dos pijamas. Fiquei emocionado com a história do homem que implora um castigo a um cão e, em vez disso, recebe amor... E tantas outras histórias comoventes que, por vezes, me deixaram a pensar muito a sério sobre a VIDA!
I recomend this to anyone! It's short and sweet and light. It's the easy reading kind. Try this and then tell us what you think about it.
Recomendo-o a toda a gente! É pequeno, giro e leve. É de leitura muito fácil. Experimenta e depois diz-nos o que pensas dele.
I enjoyed it, very much!
Eu gostei muito dele!
And charbono, sorry about the infiltration in the bookring. I hope you don't mind... :)
E charbono, desculpa a infiltração no bookring. Espero que não te importes... :)
Now the book gets back to the proper hands - gata's - and it will travel to meet Xanocas, probably tomorrow.
Agora, o livro volta para a gata e depois viajará até à Xanocas, provavelmente amanhã.
Once again, thanks for these life lessons. Pretty good book!
Uma vez mais, obrigado por estas lições de vida. Bastante bom!

It's a very sweet book. I've read it last Sunday and I enjoyed some of Leunig's theories.
My favourites: the bucket of water with our reflection that contributes to a better world; the "How to get there" theory and the one with the dog (love instead of punishment; don't pay war with war).
And the drawings are very cute.
On its way to girassol.

This was a quick read but very enjoyable. The part i liked most, is the one telling you "How To Be Of Value"! I'm waiting for norfolk to give me an address and send it off!

Life,at times, does tend to overtake one! I'm sure Leunig's duck can empathise. Sorry for not journaling before this. I've read and smiled, and enjoyed his commentary on our world. Soon to be returned.

Thankyou for posting it too me charbono! Looking forward to reading this.
