Marley & Me: Life and Love With the World's Worst Dog （2008-11-21）
I must say taking care of impulsive dogs like Marley demands patience and hard work. So I can appreciate the Grogan's dedicated care of this hyperactive dog, Marley, who had the typical traits of ADHD. Of course, dealing with ADHD people is so hard. When it comes to dogs with ADHD, that's even more difficult. He wasn't able to do as the owner told him to, made a lot of mischief, and so on - nothing was so annoying as these for most of dog owners. I might have flown off the handle if I had found his frequent misbehaviors. - "Next time you do this, you are going to the slaughterhouse! Get it?" I just wonder whether it meant animal abuse...
However, I felt Marley was John's vivid reminder when I found he received lots of e-mails after Marley's death. I guess that was mainly because most of those who e-mailed him said encouragingly that they had the same or worse experience with their misbehaved dogs. Perhaps John Grogan saw through Marley's pros as well as cons of the dog's rambunctiousness.
Anyway, without unconditional love with Marley, the hyperactive and rambunctious dog, John Grogan would never have written Marley & Me: Life and Love with the World's Worst Dog, I'd say.

著者がジャーナリストなので、非常に読みやすい英語です。
内容も犬好きに限らず、心が温まる一冊だと思います。とてもかわいい、愛らしいMarleyが目に浮かびます。和訳版も出版されていますが、原文のほうがこの本の良さが伝わりやすいと思います。英語の表現も参考になりますのでぜひ。
You will DEFINITELY laugh, cry and shake your head reading this book! （2006-12-19）
Filled with energy and excitement, Marley lights up the life of the author, and through this book, will light up the readers' lives as well.
Reading this book has made my day SO much brighter, and I can understand the love the owners have for this energetic and dumb at the same time, but so full of loyalty and love dog. Marley teaches us to live life to the fullest and enjoy every second.
The author did a brilliant job capturing Marley's energy, and used perfectly chosen words to describe every scene (read: mess) Marley has created. But no matter how crazy this dog is, the author made it impossible to be angry with good ol Marley.
The ending of book (and of course the end of Marley's life) was also excellently written. I almost couldn't bring myself to continue reading, I was so not looking forward to the inevitable. I read it, anyway, and ended up eye-sored the next morning, with used tissue, all over the floor.
Common words used in this book were "ebullient, transgressed, gusto, brawn, rambunctious, exuberance", you get the scene?
この本に出合えてよかった。 （2006-05-12）
クスクスと笑いながら読んだマーリーの犬生。そして、最後は涙が止まらなかった・・・。自分の愛犬をなでながら、この子と出会え、暮らせる事の幸運さをつくづく感じた。著者のジョン・グローガンとその家族のマーリーに対する愛情が痛いほど感じられ、心が洗われるようでした。
翻訳される予定があるのか分からないけれど、英語が読める方には是非読んでもらいたい一冊。私のお気に入りの一冊です。
Marley & Me is a loving valentine. . . （2006-03-08）
. . .to one dog and his spirit.
It's about time we get a book like this! Everyone who loves and/or owns dogs will relate and react strongly to this book. And for those who do not know the love of a dog or has never owned one, this will open your eyes to the depth of their love, loyalty, heroism and goofiness that they bring to us. You will also come to appreciate how clever we have to be to outsmart our canine friends and why its smart to have a little reserve set to the side for emergency repairs. You will laugh out loud, cry and cheer Marley and the Grogans through all of their experiences. This story strikes a cord deep within me and I now must reconsider if my own beloved pup has been outranked as the world's worst dog.
