Better Together: Life Is Best With A Friend Like You by Warren Photographic

Life is Best with a Friend Like You

I have one word to start this review: adorable. 

If you love well-done pictures of animals playing together or in funny poses together, then this is the book for you. Warren Photographic does an amazing job of capturing the playful and cuddly side of animals, mostly dogs, cats, and rabbits, but there are a few other varieties in there as well. All of the animals are pictured against a white background just like the cover picture of the book and it just really works well for this book.

On the opposite side of the picture is a quote featuring an aspect of friendship such as unity, respect, compassion, peace etc. There are seven different sections with quotes following those themes. The people quoted vary widely from the Proverbs to Mother Teresa to Stevie Wonder to Bono to Vincent Van Gogh to Abraham Lincoln to Barak Obama and many more.

If you like the Blue Day books, as I call them, by Bradley Trevor Grieve, then I think you would also like this book. It's a nice hardback, gift-sized, beautiful book.  It would make an excellent coffee table display, a gift for a good friend, or a great day brightener in a care package. My children loved looking at the pictures and the first time through they were laughing in a rather contagious way.

One of the quotes that really stuck out to me was this one by Christina Baldwin: "With compassion, we see benevolently our own human condition and the condition of our fellow beings. We drop prejudice. We withhold judgment."  This spoke to me in my endeavor to see other people less critically and to give the benefit of the doubt.

So if you're feeling blue and just want some fun, pretty pictures, get this book. If you need some inspiring quotes about being a good friend, get this book. If you want to inspire someone else or encourage them, give them this book.

I received this book from Book Look Bloggers and was not required to write a positive review.
