More about the Galunker

WARNING: Spoilers!

Galunker is an illustrated rhyming book for dog-lovers aged 8-80:  an effort to address the extreme bias against bully breeds.   It was a mega-hit on Kickstarter, and as been celebrated as a beautiful metaphor for tolerance.

Everyone, no matter their politics, agrees that we should judge people on their individual merits.  This is illuminated in the story a dog, Galunker, and a strange young girl, Blinky, who are outcasts from their community:  Galunker because he is scary looking, despite being a marshmallow; and Blinky because she wears an eye-patch, and talks a blue streak.  (It’s not stated, but she likely suffers from Asperger’s Syndrome.)

They find each other, and hrough this find redemption.

Galunker is about diversity and inclusion, in both the dog and the human world.  The demonic shelter director, Ms. Breezy Pacifical Ooze, judges Galunker simply on the basis of his looks.  Blinky, unperturbed by his appearance, rescues him from this evil woman; she in turn earns his unconditional love, despite her peculiarity. The dog catcher, Follicle Philty, is initially on the side of Ms. Ooze, but is gradually won over by this pair; he begins as their pursuer, but gradually becomes a partner in their adventure.  Philty, unlike the shelter director, is capable of changing his bias when resented with new information.

Even without these valuable themes, Galunker would be a gorgeous romp of a story.  It appeals to anyone who loves pets and wants us to save every one.
