Recommended by kids for NYRA 2013, I just couldn't see anything special about this book. It is a story about the dog Marley during Halloween decorating, partying, and trick-or-treating. Probably it was recommended around that time of the year.
This review also found at The Children's Book and Media ReviewCassie, Louis, Mommy, and Daddy are especially excited for Halloween because this year they are throwing a party for all of their friends. Everyone, including Marley, wants to help Mommy get ready. First they carve a pumpkin, and Marely gets his head stuck in the pumpkin. When the family tries to decorate, Marley pops all the balloons and destroys the confetti. Marley bobs for apples, steals the tail instead of playing Pin the Tail on...
Last year, I believe it was, we enjoyed Marley and the Runaway Pumpkin (which you can also find in the Marley's Storybook Treasury as well as Marley's Big Box of Reading Fun if you're interested in more Marley adventures!) so the idea of Marley and more pumpkins was intriguing. This time around Cassie's family is hosting a halloween party followed by trick or treating. As always Marley is overzealous and into it all. This is a fun interest early reader without much happening, but jus...
Let's just be honest and say I didn't like this. I have read, and did enjoy, Marley and Me, but I am a little perturbed by all the spin-offs it has spawned. I think two things bothered me the most about this: the kids' character names did not even slightly correspond with Grogan's kids in the original (yes, you could make an argument for the kids' privacy, but if you are doing a spin-off, it should be an accurate spin-off, right?) and, after all the trouble Marley got in, they put him in charge
Marley makes trouble at the Halloween party, until it's time to give out treats.
A fun and cute story. The pictures are rich and realistic.
I didn't like this book for rather petty reasons.1) The illustrations: The dog has creepy human eyes. 2) Dialog: So the baby can speak in 5 word sentences but can pronounce any words correctly? I didn't find it cute or funny and luckily the kids only asked me to read it once.
Cozy art for Halloween. If you love Dogs, this is the Halloween book for you. Cute and fun and some puppy trouble all in one. This is the Marley from the movie and book Marley and Me. Puppies will pull all the stunts in this book.The Niece and Nephew loved this.
Children will love the hilarious antics of Marley in this Halloween story. He is no help setting up for a Halloween party - getting his head stuck in the pumpkin and eating the decorations. Later is better helping at the party - giving rides and bobbing for apples - until he steals the candy and eats to much. Then a spooky ghost arrives...find out what happens with Marley and the trick or treaters in Trick or Treat, Marley!
Emma found the antics of Marley hilarious! Maybe we should get more of these Marley books as we prepare for a puppy next spring.
