Marley was a running whirlwind of chaos and affection rolled into one. This happy and loved dog looks cheekily at the camera. Within this autobiographical book there are photographs of the real Marley and he is also featured on the books original cover, since some covers have been updated with the film’s photograph, but in my own opinion, if you have the choice, if you are going to read about the real Marley, have the real Marley on your cover. John Grogan is a journalist and wrote this book as a tribute for and about his yellow Labrador who he adored and loved, and of his mischief and adventures over a thirteen-year period. It has also been made into a film starring Owen Wilson and Jennifer Anniston in 2005, and was received well. Since the original book was written, the book has been made into three separate books, entitled, Marley and Me: A Dog Like No Other Bad Dog, Marley which is a picture book for children learning to read and A Very Marley Christmas. It was published by Harper Collins in the US and by Hodder & Stoughton in the UK. Originally written and published in 2005, Marley and Me: Life and Love with the World’s Worst Dog was written by the author John Grogan. National Emerging Writer Programme Overview.
