From John Grogan, author of the "New York Times" bestsellers "Marley and Me" and "Bad Dogs Have More Fun" comes a new and inspiring collection of more than 80 of his much loved columns. This title is to be published hot on the heels of the (March 2009) film release of "Marley & Me". In "Life Is Like A Sailboat" John Grogan shows us all sides of the human condition in stories that reflect his unique understanding of the world we inhabit. From the fragility of life almost gone in an instant to avoiding the shoals of adolescence to cell phones driving us to distraction (as we drive!) and to turning the tables on telemarketers these pieces are filled with insight and sensitivity, laced with humor and understanding. In his own very unique way, John Grogan makes all of us feel more connected to each other and less like strangers living in a strange land.
