Marley is always in trouble, but this time he is redeemed for most of the day. This is a fun read that would go really well in the winter time. My preschooler has already loved it so much she has requested it multiple times. A good addition found in both Marley's Storybook Treasury: Marley's Big Adventure; Strike Three, Marley!, Marley and the Runaway Pumpkin; Snow Dog Marley; Thanks, Mom and Dad!; Marley: Messy Dog and Marley's Big Box of Reading Fun: Contains Marley: Farm Dog; Marley: Marley's Big Adventure; Marley: Snow Dog Marley; Marley: Strike Three, Marley!; and Marley: Marley and the Runaway Pumpkin.

Review by Brandon (5): I liked the book so much. I liked the part when Marley caught the snowball. He was being a good boy. I would like too see snow one day.

In my opinion, a children’s book must meet at least one of these criteria: (1) it rhymes (2) it has a satisfying plot (3) it is funny or at least lends itself to doing some funny voices or (4) it is mercifully short.

I found this book lacking. It relies too heavily on the reader having some prior familiarity with Marley to appreciate the jokes. Worse, my toddler loved it.

I would strongly recommend reading this book in the winter because my child will not stop asking to shovel snow. In June.

Just an ordinary book about a dog in the snow. He surprises the family with his good behavior.
