outside reading #23

For this outside reading I read the next section of the book Marley and Me written by John Grogan. This section has a couple of things happen in it. The first one was John was asked to do a report on Flight 93 where a plane crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania on September 11, 2001. Two years later John visits the place, interviews people who came and visited as well and learns something new about the country. He realized that the flag stands for valor and sacrifice. He also proud to be an American and he was hunble that he was not touched by the horrors of that day. The second thing that happened in this chapter is Marley fell down the stairs. With Malrey's old age this incident is not good because he is now down to one leg. He can't stand up so he sits all day long which means John and Jenny have to find a way for him to get outside for the bathroom. After a couple of days however he recovered and is able to walk and even make it up the stairs.

Does this book have anything to do with the movie? I saw the movie and though it was pretty good. If the book is half as good as the movie, I bet its a good book.
