Summary: Jim Carry
Review: I thought the book was very interesting, but it could of been better. The author could of explainedhis life a little better. If the book was explained more with humor it would of been better because it is more likley for a child to read the book then a adult. Over all the book was good and I learned a lot about Jim.

Review: I would recommend the book Jim Carrey to anyone. The book is a little slow at the start because the authordwindles on Carrey's childhood and him struggle to fame, a little to much. but after that the book picks up quickly. Toward the and the book goes very fast and is exciting. The book ends with a quote drom Jim Carrey himself. "Failure taught me that failure isn't the end, unless you give up." I think that the book Jim Carrey is one of the best biography I have read. There is a lot of detail, I think that that is what makes the book so good. I recommed the book to anyone who is intersted in Jim Carrey.

Review: These days Jim Carrey is very much at home on the screen, but there was a time when Carrey had no home. In fact, his entire family was homeless after his father, Percy Carrey, chose to resign from a job that was turning his family into bitter, hateful people.
My book traces Carrey's comedy from his performances at the family's dinner table to his schoolyard's playground and the classrooms of Canada through his years as a stand up comedian, television improvisational artist, and finally as the star of major motion pictures.
Jim Carrey was not an overnight sensation, but he never gave up on his dream. His story is an inspiration for us all. For those wanting to learn more about the plight of the homeless, or how to help some of the millions of homeless people, there is an extensive appendix in the book, following the Carrey biography.
