New Releases by John Grogan

Meet Marley, a dog like no other! Marley''s family has big hopes when they enter him in the local pet show, but things don''t go as planned. From grooming disasters to chaos backstage, this is one event the town will never forget. Will Marley''s giant personality be enough to take home the prize?

Marley can''t wait for his first trip to the ballpark. He is ready to cheer for the home team. But is the home team ready for Marley?

Meet the Grogans Before there was Marley, there was a gleefully mischievous boy navigating his way through the seismic social upheaval of the 1960s. On the one side were his loving but comically traditional parents, whose expectations were clear. On the other were his neighborhood pals and all the misdeeds that followed. The more young John tried to straddle these two worlds, the more spectacularly, and hilariously, he failed. Told with Grogan''s trademark humor and affection, The Longest Trip Home is the story of one son''s journey into adulthood to claim his place in the world. It is a story of faith and reconciliation, breaking away and finding the way home again, and learning in the end that a family''s love will triumph over its differences.

En John i la Jenny són joves, estan enamorats i tot just comencen una vida en comú; són feliços i tot transcorre tranquil·lament fins el dia que decideixen tenir un gos. Es queden un preciós cadellet de labrador que bategen amb el nom de Marley i que, ben aviat, es converteix en una locomotora de quaranta-quatre quilos amb pèssim control sobre el seu cos monumental. Tots els esforços per educar-lo resulten en va, però Marley té un cor pur i molt gran, i si bé rebutja posar límits al seu comportament, l''amor i la lleialtat que professa als seus també són il·limitats. L''amor incondicional, aprenen els Grogan, pot arribar en formes molt estranyes.

Marley the rambunctious dog sniffs his way to Cassie''s school and spreads chaos as he searches for her.

When Marley gets in trouble he runs away but then he learns that his family always loves him.

Follows the life story of an exuberant Labrador retriever who gets into perpetual trouble and experiences a range of inspiring adventures, from shutting down an entire beach to guarding a seventeen-year-old neighbor after a stabbing attack.

Marley, a rambunctious puppy, makes himself at home while causing lots of trouble but then proves in a very dramatic way that he is a valuable member of the household.

本书不仅讲述的是一只狗的故事,更是爱的故事,是作者约翰夫妇对家庭的凝望与沉思。因为对于想要孩子的他们来说,养狗可以说是一种生活实践。正是与马利的朝夕相处,让他们最终懂得了人生的意义与价值。

Ricamente ilustrada, com fotos nunca publicadas, esta edição especial inclui mensagem pessoal de John Grogan, bem como sua coluna publicada originalmente no Philadelphia Inquirer e que inspirou este livro.

Marley i jo és una història commovedora i inoblidable sobre la creació d’una família i un gos neuròtic que els ensenyarà què és el realment important a la vida. ¿És possible que un gos tanoca et faci descobrir la clau de la felicitat? Que ho preguntin als Grogan. En John i la Jenny són joves, estan enamorats i tot just comencen una vida en comú; són feliços i tot transcorre tranquil·lament fins el dia que decideixen tenir un gos. Es queden un preciós cadellet de labrador que bategen amb el nom de Marley i que, ben aviat, es converteix en una locomotora de quaranta-quatre quilos amb pèssim control sobre el seu cos monumental. Travessa portes de vidre, perfora les parets, baveja sobre els convidats i s’empassa tot el que troba, des de trossos de sofà fins a les joies de la Jenny. Tots els esforços per educar-lo resulten en va, i ni tan sols l’escola d’ensinistrament serveix per a res. Però Marley té un cor pur i molt gran, i si bé rebutja posar límits al seu comportament, l’amor i la lleialtat que professa als seus també són il·limitats. Comparteix amb la parella les grans alegries i els sorprèn donant-los suport en les adversitats. L’amor incondicional, aprenen els Grogan, pot arribar en formes molt estranyes.John Grogan és columnista del Philadelphia Inquirer a Pennsylvania i exeditor en cap de la revista Organic Gardening.
