Marley: A Dog Like No Other




Marley: A Dog Like Other is about the heartwarming, naughty bond between master and dog. It is the kid's version adapted from Marley and Me, the adults and original version.

Marley is really sad. I'm warning you. I was crying at the end, and my dad gave a big lecture about how everything dies. You know, that got me thinking. I've realized everyone, everything, every creature is going to die at some point. Some point, everything is going to die. Keep that in mind.

Anyway, John Grogan, the author did a really good job describing everything in the story. It seemed like I was there. I know it seems like every author does that and everyone tells about it in their blog post, but he did an especially good job. Thanks John!




Marley is a memoir, which is like a autobiography, but it doesn't tell an overview of the whole persons life, it just tells short, important moments. The dog dies, but it was pretty obvious that it was going to die. But hey, it's a memoir, so you can't really give away the story that well.

    I don't personally think I would like to read this book if the dog dies:-(. Is there any humor in this book? If yes, please tell me.
