There's a Hair in My Dirt! A Worm's Story

Rating:
Summary: trick you kids into learning
Review: Gary Larson expands beyond the single-panel comics of the "Far Side" to a full children's book. But, as you would expect, this book is not really just for kids. Anyone fan of the "Far Side" is sure to get a kick out of this book too. The story starts with father, mother and son earthworm sitting (?) down for a dinner of dirt, when the son complains about life as a worm. Father tells him the rambling story of Harriet, who loves nature even though she misunderstands just about all of it. This somehow leads to the dreaded moral of the story and the truth behind the hair in the dirt. This is a fun, yet educational, book for anyone old enough to have developed a twisted sense of humor.

Summary: A "Dirty" treat!
Review: Gary Larson is a genuis. He has a wicked, bizarre and incredible sense of humor that is apparent in every page of this delightful book. The pictures are a perfect compliment to the story and full of little gags that make you look over them again and again to make sure you haven't missed anything. Sneaking in educational facts along with the hilarity is just an extra bonus for anyone who buys this book---and you should buy it. I can't believe I didn't get it earlier. If you have children in your life, if you don't---get this book. You are guaranteed your money's worth in laugher and more!
