Product Description
Bad Dogs Have More Fun is an unforgettable collection of more than 75 newspaper columns by John Grogan, the #1 New York Times best-selling author of Marley & Me. Combining humor, wit, poignancy and affection, these columns provide insight into the intriguing and wonderful world in which we live. Whether it be writing about animals (from dogs to elephants to geese!), powerful and moving comments about his own and other families, his trenchant comments on life's foiblies and farces, or his interviews and interactions with people who are memorable and unusual in their own right, John Grogan makes us laugh - he makes us cry - he makes us think.

4 out of 5 stars Not a bad book!   January 4, 2008

If you read the title, you'll know what to expect. It is a compilation of short stories about animals, family and life (mostly stories and lessons about life). Yes, I expected more animal stories, but I enjoyed the book none the less.

I feel robbed. I should have done more research, I suppose, but I mistakenly assumed that this was some sort of sequel to "Marley & Me", a book I truly loved. Had I known before purchasing this CD set that John Grogan was NOT involved creating it, I would never have bought it.

The cover, both front and back, leads you to believe that this is a compilation of dog stories, which couldn't be further from the truth. Of six CD's included in this set, just one (CD #3) has any dog stories on it! The others are merely ramblings and musings from Grogan's old "Philadelphia Inquirer" column . . . probably alright, if that's what you wanted to listen to, but if you're looking for dog stories, this is NOT the CD set to buy. This set is far from entertaining and is mostly boring and depressing.

I wish Amazon would let us assign ratings in the negative numbers as I would give this garbage a rating of -5 stars. Simply giving it a one star rating isn't sufficient. I feel ripped off, hugely disappointed and wish I had my money back.



1 out of 5 stars "ZERO" STARS TO THIS "BOOK"   September 16, 2007

Do not buy. This was done without the consent, involvement or approval of the author of the NY Times best selling book "Marley and Me," John Grogan.

Stick with ONLY his versions of "Marley & Me." There are editions for all ages: Adult, teens and children.

This is not one of them.
