Rezensionen

"[Marley & Me] took my breath away. I laughed. I cried. . . . What a gift...immortalizing a dog who will always hold a very special place in the hearts of each family member." - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

"Expect to laugh, cry and shake your head as you read this book. . . . Marley is a great and memorable dog, and in the hands of a writer as observant, unsentimental and piercing as Grogan, this is a human-canine journey dog lovers will want to take." - Jon Katz, bestselling author of A Dog Year and Dogs of Bedlam Farm
