When Marley's family gets angry at him, Marley runs away from home.
All morning, the energetic dog makes mischief, from catching Daddy's breakfast pancake in midair to pulling clothes from every drawer. How could one playful dog cause so much chaos before breakfast?
Sent outside for a break, he digs under the fence and dashes past the school, the library, and the park. A delicious bakery smell soon stops him in his tracks.
Can a hungry runaway resist the scent of fresh cakes and cookies? Who knew one little dog could get into such big trouble? Will Marley's family find him?
