Synopsis:
Here's a whimsical and cleverly amusing photo collection that plays on the differences between cats and dogs--and just as significant, on differences between cat people and dog people. Dogs will typically come when they are called. Cats are more likely to take a message and get back to you. Dogs await our commands, while cats are quietly amused by our requests. Dogs keep us company, while cats keep us guessing. Dogs capture our hearts, but Cats enchant our souls. Each two-page spread in this charming book presents humorous contrasting portraits of a dog and a cat on facing pages, with photos accompanied by brief but revealing captions. These eye-catching color photos have a great deal to say about the whims and personalities of dogs, of cats, and of the human beings who own them.
From the Inside Flap:
(back cover)
Centuries pass. Millennia even. And still the debate rages on . . .
Cat person?
Dog person?
(front flap)
Are you a cat person or a dog person?
Dogs come when they are called. Cats take a message and get back to you. Dogs attentively await our command. Cats are quietly amused by our requests. Dogs keep you company. Cats keep you guessing. Dogs capture our hearts. Cats command our souls . . . though exceptions on both counts abound.
The debate has raged for centuries. Though no one forces us to choose, many of us do. And what does it say about you? Gandee Vasan's captivating cat pictures and painterly pooch portraits just might help you decide. (back flap)
Gandee Vasan was born in Colombo, Sri Lanka. His passion at an early age was painting, but in recent years he has concentrated on photography. His award-winning creative work is featured in ad campaigns, displayed at London's National Portrait Gallery, the Association of Photographers, and in numerous exhibitions. Gandee takes his inspiration by absorbing what he sees around him and interpreting it into images he wants others to see.
