Library Journal Review
Animal activist and professional photographer Casteel made a big splash with his Underwater Dogs and Underwater Dogs: Kids Edition. He now features puppies age six weeks to six months old swimming, diving, chasing and catching balls, and just cavorting in the water. Of the 1,000 pool puppies that Casteel photographed, many were rescue dogs-a cause that he is passionate about. Narrowed down to just 80, these remarkable aquamarine photos show paddling pugs and pits, romping retrievers, bobbing boxers and beagles, and tenacious terriers. Some photos are close-ups of paws and faces; others showcase puppies that seem to glide through a profusion of water bubbles. Verdict With fewer close-ups of canine teeth than in Underwater Dogs, which can be a bit intimidating, this work might be more enjoyable for children and those who are fearful around dogs. This delightful and unique photographic collection is recommended for photography collections and for those who enjoy looking at adorable puppies that seem to be saying, "Come on in, the water's fine."
