Our Books

Rosie has never read a self-help book. She has never downloaded a meditation app, attended a breathing workshop, or Googled “how to be present.” She is a sixty-pound mixed-breed dog of uncertain heritage and unshakable confidence, and she is—by every meaningful metric her human can identify—better at being alive than they are.

Across ten chapters, B.K. Larrikin explores the life lessons hiding in plain sight in every tail wag, every morning stretch, every unapologetic nap, and every ecstatic greeting at the front door. Each chapter pairs laugh-out-loud storytelling with genuinely useful wellness exercises drawn from mindfulness research, positive psychology, and the unimpeachable authority of a dog named Rosie.

Featuring original illustrations by Cael Morricone and the warmth of a writer who learned the hard way that the best teacher in the household has four legs and terrible breath, this is for anyone who has ever watched their dog greet the morning like a miracle and thought: teach me.
