I’m a huge animal lover and have reviewed animal books here before, so I couldn’t resist taking a look at Through the Eyes of Snowball by April Terhaar. It’s another great book told from the point-of-view of the animal itself, in this case, Snowball the Maltese puppy.

With a title like that, I just had to take a look at Chazda Albright’s book. Being a fellow poet and artist, the title alone definitely captured my attention. Chazda introduces the book with an explanation about her medium:

For a camera enthusiast like me, there’s just something about the feel of that magic black box with lense and flash in hand. In college, I spent my loan refund on a $400 35mm Canon Rebel SG and a love of photography was born. Last year, I snatched up a digital Canon Powershot on sale at a Circuit City that was going under. I love it because it still has that big bulky feel of my old 35mm.

Four years ago while on vacation, I passed by one of those pottery painting places. It was something I had never done before, and two close friends agreed to go inside with me. We decided to each paint a platter and give all three to a friend to hang on their dining room wall. My two friends painted abstract designs: swirls and dots and shapes and colors. I painted a lake and a tree with mountains in the background. My friends convinced me that I was pretty good at painting, so I made a trip to a craft store when I returned home. I purchased some canvases, acrylic paint, and brushes, and a new hobby was born.
