Rating: Summary: if you own the chicks, you must own the book. Review: a friend of mine bought me these little chicks once for fun, and i adore them. tonight, i browsed through a bookstore and saw this book on display, and it absolutely fractured me. you can appreciate the book without the chicks, but it adds another dimension if you have 'em. so fun to read. clever photos. bought it for the friend. christmas shopping finished. off to gaze at my tree.
Rating: Summary: "Overly-serious" types need not apply... Review: A visually appealling, lighthearted and very entertaining book - I smiled throughout! In fact, if I didn't, I'd probably need therapy. Anyone who can muster up anything negative to say about this book is probably an over-pensive bore, lacking personality and out of touch with his inner child.
Rating: Summary: These Chicks Rule Review: Bitter With Baggage is brilliant. I read it last night and it is so funny and so touching at the same time. I just love it.
Rating: Summary: Just What I'm Always Thinking Review: Every time I go to Yoga class I can never find a space either. How do Sloane Tanen's chickens seem to know exactly what I'm thinking? Witty, urbane, wry and contemporary, this book understands our daily life and makes us laugh about ourselves and our neighbors.
Rating: Summary: Brilliant! Review: I bought this book for my girlfriend a week ago, and we haven't stopped laughing since! Perfect casual reading for anyone who "gets it".
Rating: Summary: the biggest laugh I've ever had over a book Review: I bought this book while shopping in Gatwick Airport on a whim. My friend and I read it on our flight to Dublin and we couldn't stop laughing. Every person I've shown it to doubles over in hysterical laughter over every page. Whenever I need a lift I look at my favorite pages! This is a must for all your friends!
Rating: Summary: Flippin Brilliant! Review: I can honestly say that this is the greatest book ever written. Too darn funny!!!! awesome illustrations! text is hilarious! great gift!
Rating: Summary: maybe I don't get it Review: I don't know, its cute but maybe I just don't get it. I mean haha its funny, but I wouldn't run out and buy copies for my friends, which is how I received it. dunno. just not for me.
Rating: Summary: Great!! Review: I fell in love with this book the second I picked it up. The title's a wonderful introduction to a silly look into one chicken's life. YES! It's mindless and silly!! A nice break for some fun laughs. Worth every penny!!
Rating: Summary: given away at least ten copies already...! Review: I have bought and rebought this book, only to have friends and family scream over it and it ask could they please, please buy it (or have it) from me! The humor is not for kids, but my parents, my professors, and my friends all want copies of their own. Obviously this is a winner, especially for anyone looking for the perfect gift. Who doesn't need a little humor around the holidays? For more holiday humor, try David Sedaris' "Holidays on Ice." It isn't a picture book, but it is mighty bitter at times.
