A book of awkward photos, sparingly aided by humorous captions, showing decades of actual photos of humans and animals interacting in heartwarming, nerdy, eyebrow-raising ways that are all, as advertised, truly awkward. You have got a wide range of pets here, from rats to chickens to reptiles to a cougar. Plus plenty of cats and dogs, in various compromising poses and showing a wide range of emotion, costumery, and occasionally compromising situations. Pokes gentle fun without punching down, and sometimes augmented by priceless explanatory notes from the people who contributed the photos.
