> Biography Books > General Books

A beautiful gift edition of the bestselling and heartwarming story of a family in the making and the wondrously neurotic dog who taught them what really matters in life.

John and Jenny were young and deeply in love, with a perfect little house and not a care in the world. Then they brought home Marley, a wiggly yellow fur ball of a puppy. Life would never be the same.Marley quickly grew into a barrelling, 44-kilo steamroller of a Labrador retriever. Expelled from obedience school, even the tranquillisers prescribed by the vet couldn't stop him. Yet through the chaos and the hilarity he won hearts and remained a steadfast model of devotion to his family, even when they were at their wit's end. Unconditional love, they would learn, comes in many forms.
