Marley and Me

Mr. Grogan knew the workings of Marley's mind. He makes that abundantly clear in MARLEY AND ME, a very funny valentine to all those four-legged big, dopey, playful galumphs that seemed to love life with a passion not often seen in this world. It's a book with intense but narrow appeal, strictly limited to anyone who has ever had, known or wanted a dog. - NEW YORK TIMES a sweet, funny tale - THE AGE A must for anyone who's ever had a canine pal - and even for those cat lovers who might be persuaded by the merits of man's best friend. - SUNDAY HERALD SUN Labrador retrievers are generally considered even-tempered, calm and reliable - and then there's Marley, the subject of this delightful tribute to one Lab who doesn't fit the mold . . .
