When I get depressed, I just take a look at our two wiener dogs. You'll never see more of a can-do attitude—in a more can't-do body—than a wiener dog.
Brimming with radiant optimism and kindhearted humor, NPR commentator Kevin Kling's autobiographical stories are wise, uplifting, and extremely funny. Though he has substantial physical challenges (his left arm was only partially formed at birth, and a motorcycle accident paralyzed his right arm), he rarely mentions them. Instead, he writes about shenanigans from his youth, friendships past and present, and life lessons of every variety. The Dog Says How (Kling's voice-activated computer software translates his dog's "bark bark bark" as "how how how" and his cat's "meow meow meow" as "why why why") makes a great gift for anybody who could use a big smile.
