    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Responding to disgruntled dogs nationwide, Mr. Mutt, Canine Counselor, has solutions to the most sticky dilemmas. But Mr. Mutt has his <em>own</em> problem to solve: the cat (aka The Queen), who has her own idea of who&#8217;s in charge. Now Mr. Mutt is the one who needs help--quick!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;          &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Through letters and newspaper clippings--and with plenty of their trademark humor--Janet Stevens and Susan Stevens Crummel give voice to despairing dogs everywhere.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I remember reading the review and wasn't really looking forward to it thinking it might be a bad rip off of the Dear Mrs La Rue books. However, this is just as cute, and I love that there is a cat writing letters back as well. The illustrations are full of detail and lots of fun.]]></body>
