He grows and grows, and the bigger Marley gets, the bigger trouble he gets into. Big, bad-boy trouble.

    Marley is a trouble causing dog, who is adopted by a couple. No matter how much trouble Marley causes, the couple still loves Marley very much, and Marley grows up with their family. At the end of the book Marley has grown old and must be put down. Although the ending is very sad, the story teaches an unending love, no matter what may happen in life.

    This is a good book for children to learn about the responsibilities of having a pet at home. At the same time children can compare between the good and not so good things that having a pet at home can bring.

    A cute, realistic story about a puppy that has bad manners. The family has a hard time keeping him out of things and not tearing them up. Marley proves to be an important part of the family in the end.

    This 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.
