Description: "A playful deep dive into anthropomorphism (our peculiar tendency to humanize the nonhuman) that will resonate with anyone who has thrown a birthday party for their dog."--Provided by publisher.

Review Quotes: "Going beyond a delightful explanation of why we dress our dogs in cute costumes, this is an engaging and timely investigation of how we interact with technology, politics, and religion through a unique narrativizing lens--demonstrating that what makes us human is what we see as human-ish."--Adam Aleksic, author of Algospeak: How Social Media is Transforming the Future of Language
