The story is about a couple who decide to adopt a yellow Labrador retriever to see how they might do as parents before they start having children.
Although they get more than they bargained for when Marley proves to be an uncontrollable ball of energy, the couple also comes to regard the lovable, fiercely loyal canine as an integral member of their family.
"The Devil Wears Prada" director David Frankel is expected to helm the Fox 2000 film version of the beloved book when production begins next year, Variety.com reported Monday.
