This book, Marley & Me is a true story about the life of a Labrador called Marley and his owners. It is told by John Grogan who is in reality, Marley's owner and is the author of the book. John and his wife Jenny decided to adopt a labrador puppy as they wanted to be sure they could take care of a baby - it was a practice of taking care of a baby but instead first with a puppy. It wasn't so easy looking after Marley though because of his mischief and adventures he got up to. He was quite a handful to his owners. He was even kicked out of dog school due to his disobedience. John stated him as "the world's worst dog" but this has two meanings, where Marley did get up to some trouble, he still was a dog that was lovable and gave happiness to the family.
Overall, this book was fun but emotional at times and really supported the idea of love, friendship and loyalty. I would recommend this book to everyone as it's not a book just for dog-lovers.
