Sweetie Says I Never Met a Man I Didn't Lick: An Alphabet of Love

By Mark Welsh

The canine charmer and legendary man magnet, Sweetie (the author of the popular Sweetie: From the Gutter to the Runway), knows a thing or two about what it takes to make a dog sit, roll over, and beg for more. In her follow-up tell-all, I Never Met a Man I Didn't Lick, Sweetie, the hairy heartbreaker, thumbs through her famous little black book and offers a virtual alphabet of dating dos and don'ts. In A is for Aphrodisiac, a well-rounded, even meaty Sweetie reassures us that nothing drives a dog wild with desire like a girl with some meat on her bones. In B is for Beefcake, Sweetie strongly suggests that suitors should be a lot like steaks--red blooded and their prime. In C is for Chastity, an alluringly draped Sweetie advises that it's better to be chaste and caught than never to be chaste at all. Lavishly illustrated by acclaimed artist Ruben Toledo, I Never Met a Man I Didn't Lick contains a litany of laugh-out-loud lines on love from the unique perspective of a girl's (and man's) best friend. A must for dog lovers and those who love them back.

Cute!

Bought this for my single sister-in-law and she loved it! It is a great coffee table book. Very funny! And to think Sweetie was a stray that "found" her owner and is living the life!

the perfect xmas or valentine's day book

i loved the first book but this one is even better. sweetie gives funny, tongue-in-cheek advice about love, sex and puppies. amazing illustrations. she's the new eloise. great gift for my three daughters. my husband bought this for me as a gift.

Witty, Clever, and Charming

The ABCs of love. A collection of delicious bon-bons, each morsel a tidbit of love advice from a voice of experience - a cute canine who (seemingly) has been around a few blocks a few times. "On the menu of love, not all men are main courses." So true. The illustrations are wonderful, too. I loved this book. I got it as a gift from my sweetie. A great gift. A little treasure.

A Sweet Treat

This is the follow up on Sweetie's "From the Gutter to the Runway". (Sweetie is a dog who somehow found her way to being a darling mutt of the fashion world.) I really enjoyed that book and was happy to see she had more to say. When it comes to love advice, she seems to have a pretty good-humored head on her shoulders! Very cute. The illustrations are a treat, too! Loved it.
