The book "Life & Love With the World's Worst Dog" by John Grogan. Has anyone read this book? I thought maybe one of the numerous dog lovers on the board had read it. I am considering purchasing as a Christmas gift but wondering whether appropriate reading for a 13 year old.

Oh my gosh. In college I had a puppy black lab named Marley. She was SO BAD. Bit us, pooed and peed everywhere. I saw that book and wanted to get it for my roommate at the time. I want to read it!

This Marley is a yellow lab. The book looks good - it's on the best seller's list & there is a wait list at my library.

Do you think the book would be appropriate for a 13 year old?

Definetely. Even though the relationship is about a man and his dog, the message is about acceptance and learning to appreciate what you have.
