About this audiobook
Mommy, Daddy, Cassie, and Baby Louie welcome Marley, their new Labrador pup, into their family. But Marley doesn't stay a tiny puppy for long. He grows and grows, and the bigger Marley gets, the bigger trouble he gets into. Big, bad-boy trouble. Whether it's chewing Mommy's reading glasses or swallowing Daddy's paycheck, Marley is a dog like no other. He tries to be a good dog, honest he does, but everything he tries ends up bad. Then one day Marley goes too far. Will this family have to find a new home for their big, crazy, pure-hearted dog?
Inspired by John Grogan's bestselling memoir, Marley & Me, this heartwarming story shows that loving someone, flaws and all, can reap huge rewards.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This picture books detailing Marley's misadventures with his new family is entertaining for young children only. The illustrations might be fun for k-2 so they might pick out the details of destruction Marley leaves in his wake. However, the story is bare at best. It is predictable and the prose is ho-hum.
