Genre of Marley: A Dog Like No Other ?Question:I bought my DD's the kids version of Marley and Me. So far, they love it! Has anyone bought it for their children? Another thing I need to know is to figure out what Genre it is considered? I know non-fiction, but would it be humor? or animal? By animal I think they mean info. on the breed, not this type of book.. My DD's need to write that info in for the school reading log and I am not sure what to log it as? Thanks! Lynn Answer: Well Marley and ME was a true story and was based on a real dog named Marley so you could say it's a biography it was written by the man who owned and loved this dog. Answer: I think I saw somewhere it was called a memior (sp?). I'm so glad your girls liked it!! They made a new version for kids, right?? Answer: According to its library of Congress classification, it is biography. |
