A 1001 CBYMRBYGU.
A man and woman and his Dalmatian dog and her Dalmatian dog all marry. The dogs have a family. By and by, the family is visited by the evil Cruella de Vil who schemes to make coats out of the puppies.
One of my favorite comfort reads to go back to over and over - while there are some big differences between this book and the Disney adaptation so many know, it gave me an even richer story to enjoy, with surprises and characters I came to love dearly (no pun intended). An older writing style might take a little getting used to for any not expecting it, but it's well worth it. Beautiful descriptions, wonderful mix of cozy & peaceful vs exciting and tense, this is a brilliant journey to go on, with a layered, satisfying conclusion. I can't say it enough, one of my favorite reads I've ever found, and I'm so glad I did!
