Marley and Me

I read Marley and Me by John Grogan, a while back.  The book was hilarious and I really enjoyed reading it.  John Grogan and his wife, Jenny decide that taking care of a dog would be good practice for taking care of a baby.  So they go out and buy a Labrador.  They name him Grogan’s Majestic Marley of Churchill.  Marley eats everything in sight, anything from wine corks to golden necklaces.  The Grogans tries to take Marley to obedience classes, but it just didn't work out, because Marley got kicked out.  Marley even managed to shut down the local dog beach, after he drank enough saltwater to throw-up.  John and Jenny also learn that Marley is afraid of thunderstorms the hard way.  They leave him in their garage during a thunderstorm, when they come home after the storm is over; they find their garage in ruins.  As funny as Marley and Me is, it can be really sad, too, especially the ending.  I would recommend this book to anyone.
