Posted on June 28, 2008
Bestselling author John Grogan is working on a follow up to his book Marely and Me: Life and Love With the World's Worst Dog, which is currently being made into a feature film starring Owen Wilson, Jennifer Aniston and a very cute Labrador retriever. The Longest Trip Home will be published by William Morrow in October 2008.
"It is the powerful, often hilarious story of a son in the making, and of growing up in a loving, but comically old-school Catholic family," said the statement issued by Morrow. "From his troublemaking childhood to his courtship of a fiery blonde named Jenny, Grogan writes about how he came to terms with who he is and what he believes."The film version of Marley and Me has a a hilarious trailer out. Take a look:"Even before Marley & Me was published, I knew this was the story I wanted to tell next," Grogan, 51, said in a statement. "The Longest Trip Home is a story very close to my heart."
