Marley and Me by:John Grogan

I read the book Marley and Me. It is a true story about a family and their wacky, insane dog. This family has to live life around a dog that causes nothing but destruction and chaos. If you enjoy twisted scenes and cute pictures Marley and Me is the perfect book for you. I feel very bad for the family because every time there were thunderstorms things went wrong, extremely wrong. I enjoyed it and so will you. I couldn’t even put the book down and when I finished it I had to read it again because it was so hilarious. If you want to find out about Marley strange life and what happens when there is a thunder storm, read Marley and Me, you will not regret it.
