I, Toto : The Autobiography of Terry, the Dog who was Toto Hardback

Description

During the expansion of the Ventura Freeway in Los Angeles, Willard Carroll unearthed a leather-bound scrapbook from a site that was once a pet cemetery.

To his delight and amazement, its yellowing pages contained the rags-to- riches story of Terry, the Cairn terrier who played Toto in the enduring film The Wizard of Oz.

Reprinted here in its entirety, I, Toto traces the canine star’s tragic beginnings (she was abandoned because of housetraining failures until trainer Carl Spitz took her in), her exhilarating film career (she made almost a dozen movies with stars such as Shirley Temple, Spencer Tracy and, of course, Judy Garland), her days as the top-billed star with the Hollywood Motion Picture Dog Review, and her happy retirement in Southern California.

Best of all, it offers the inside scoop on Toto’s signature role, her co-stars, and the making of The Wizard of Oz.

Toto’s lovingly illustrated scrapbook features 100 photographs and reproductions collected over a dog’s life, including film stills, press clippings, lobby cards, movie posters and movie memorabilia, plus personal snapshots from Toto’s life at home.

This unique autobiography is must-have for every fan of the classic movie and its equally classic canine star.
