Críticas: "Lessons from Lucy is extremely funny (in a couple of places I laughed until water ran from my eyes and a slightly thicker fluid came from my nose). You'd expect that from Dave Barry. What you might not expect is how insightful it is, and downright touching. If you've grown old along with Dave, you will want to read this book. You'll also want to read it if you're a dog lover, but that's optional. These are very lively life lessons even for the canine-impaired."
-- Stephen King

"Barry's signature sarcasm and dry wit is on display throughout.... An effortless reading experience for dog lovers and Barry fans alike."
-- Publishers Weekly

"Dog lovers will howl with laughter at humorist Dave Barry's advice book on living your best life by following the examples of his sweet senior rescue dog."
-- Dogster

"An outrageously funny book in which Barry touches on all the things readers have come to love about his unique brand of slightly curmudgeonly, self-deprecating, stream of consciousness humor. Try as you might, however, it is hard to escape the fact that Lessons From Lucy is deep, sweet and downright touching."
-- The Bark

"Astute advice about growing older rolled into a blanket of classic Barry humor... The lessons are filled with the author's signature brand of quirky, sometimes-sarcastic humor... Even for those who are not as enamored by dogs as the author, his gentle wisdom seeps through."
-- Kirkus Reviews

"We couldn't stop laughing."
-- Parade

"Delightful... witty and wise."
-- BookPage

"Barry's anecdotes gave me belly laughs of recognition.... The book is easy to digest, enjoyable to read and good for you (you know what they say about laughter triggering endorphins). Barry's humor knows no borders, and even the canine-ambivalent can give it two paws up."
-- Boomer Magazine

"Thoughtful and highly personal, the reflections of a man who wants to live his life a little better than he has in the past."
-- Deseret News

"Whether it's learning to let go of anger or living in the present, we could all take a page from Lucy."
-- New York Post
