Synopsis
Is it possible for humans to discover the key to happiness through a bigger-than-life, bad-boy dog? Just ask the Grogans. John and Jenny were just beginning their life together. They were young and in love, with not a care in the world. Then they brought home Marley, a wiggly yellow furball of a puppy. Life would never be the same. Marley grew into a barreling, ninety-seven-pound streamroller of a Labrador retriever. He crashed through screen doors, gouged through drywall, and stole women's undergarments. Obedience school did no good -- Marley was expelled. But just as Marley joyfully refused any limits on his behavior, his love and loyalty were boundless, too. Marley remained a model of devotion, even when his family was at its wit's end. Unconditional love, they would learn, comes in many forms. Marley & Me is John Grogan's funny, unforgettable tribute to this wonderful, wildly neurotic Lab and the meaning he brought to their lives., The heartwarming and unforgettable story of a family and the wondrously neurotic dog who taught them what really matters in life. Now with photos and new material. Is it possible for humans to discover the key to happiness through a bigger-than-life, bad-boy dog? Just ask the Grogans.

    Item was reasonably priced and very well packaged. Slow to get in the mail but delivered on time. Communication was average, but at the end of the day the item arrived and as described.

    This 1990s Curious George stamp stationery box set is a nostalgic gem! It arrived exactly as described—immaculate condition, securely packaged, and full of vintage charm. The quality, appearance, and value were all fantastic. Shipping was quick and smooth. As a soon-to-be first-time dad, I’m excited to pass treasures like this to my little one. Thank you, Sweeney_inc, for preserving such a fun piece of the past. Highly recommend this wonderful seller!

  • Marley & Me

    This book is a real heart-tugger. It includes a family. It has a puppy who will go on to touch their family's hearts. It features playtime and multiple life-lessons. And it features the puppy growing into a big dog. Be warned. If you're not a fan of stories where the dog dies at the end, don't get this book.

  • A must read for dog lovers

    I originally read this in paperback (which I usually toss) but it's so enjoyable that I decided to add it to my permanent hardcover library. This is a must read for all dog lovers. It's well written and hard to put down once started. I can see myself taking it off the shelf to read every few years.

  • Great

    It is a book to be read by all dog lovers. And it is a real story. The book was brand new and the price unbelievable. And it was in large print which is great for seniors and for kids. Thank you.
