In this autobiography, John Grogan tells of life with his Labrador, Marley. Marley isn't like all dogs. Marley is a dog with ADHD. He's so crazy and so hyper! When Jenny and John are ready for their first dog as a married couple, they fall in love with clearance puppy. They bring him home and find out he's a little terror with nice packaging. His severe phobia of thunder and his basically unteachable mind make him a hard dog to handle. Eventually, Jenny and John have kids and start a very lovely little family.
This book is an amazing book. It has a touching story with many great details. You can really feel like you're a secret spy who has been assigned to the Grogan's when you read this book because of these great details. I give the book an A because I absolutely loved it!
It isn't, however, a book to read if you're not okay with swearing. Often, Marley's destructive behaivior sends John and Jenny into a pit of anger, and swear words sort of fly out of their mouths. This doesn't happen very often, but this is a warning.
If you love animals, this book is definitely for you. If you love feeling like a secret agent, I would say this book is also for you because you get to know the Grogan's. This is a great book for all ages, really, and it has a good, enjoyable story. It made me laugh several times. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to read it!
