The Zen of Zelda

Zelda is back. In the follow-up to her hilarious debut, Zelda Wisdom, Zelda returns to lead us down the doggy path to enlightenment with zany Zen koans and more of the laugh-inducing photographs that made her first book such a hit. This hilarious canine guru will lift your spirits and bring a smile to your face. The "Doggy Lama" dispenses Zenlike wisdom in her inimitable bulldog style. With a face everyone can love, a bikini-clad Zelda reminds us that appearances count for nothing. "You are a soul with a body. . . not a body with a soul." Who knew that true Zen wisdom could be found in the form of a 60-pound bulldog? Zelda reminds us that "laughing at ourselves brings us closer to enlightenment than anything else." We would all do well to get in touch with our inner Zelda.
