Rating: Summary: A must read for any VW Bug fanatic! Review: I just received my copy of this great book! It's a great collection of humorous, touching, and a few unbelievable Bug tales! It's hard to put down if you have a great love for the VW Bug. You will definitely laugh out loud.
Rating: Summary: Bug Tales Review Review: I learned 3 things after reading "Bug tales"; most people "name" their beloved Vw, everybody has a Vw story of some sort to tell and always take a throttle cable with you where ever you go! This has got to be one of the most interesting collections of Vw stories ever compiled. You never know what is going to happen next. I laughed, I cried and was always surprised at the things that can happen in, around and on top of a Beetle! What makes this book so nice is the author is a Vw fanatic like the rest of us and contributes a couple of pretty wild stories of his own. Like the time the throttle cable broke on his friends bug. Paul ended up sitting on the back bumper working the throttle while his buddy yelled "shift!" when he changed gears. Believe it or not they made it to the repair shop that way! You'll love this book even if you don't own a Vw! "Four air cooled cylinders up" to the authors Paul Klebahn and Gabriella Jacob! END

Rating: Summary: "Bugtales" brings back the 60's in all of us over 50! Review: I loved reading through Bugtales. Every story brought out man's personal relationship with their beloved VW. For many of us 60's kids this was the only car we could afford. I found it facinating how the bug has become a treasured item. The stories all evoke images of VW owners from all walks of life and all parts of the country. The VW stories stand the test of time. Any VW owner can relate to the sometimes touching and many times hilarious rembrances in this book. Would be a great present to anyone who either owned a bug, knew someone who did or just wished they had been bitten by BUG FEVER.
Rating: Summary: Any VW owner can identify! Review: I never thought about it before, but these cars (and especially the hippie campers) really have a "people" side to them, and this book points that out. I like the way the people tell their own stories about things that happened to them in their cars. The funny ones are really funny and the emotional ones will make you feel like you're part of the scene. Ever since I read the book I have remembered lots of "tales" of my own that I want to submit for the sequel book!

Rating: Summary: Everybody I know is emotionally attached to a VW somewhere Review: I received my copy of this book in the mail the other day. One of my VW stories was accepted in the book. As I shared the book with family, friends and coworkers more stories came flooding in. I never knew so many of the people I know had somewhere somehow or someplace made a bug or VW bus a part of their young adulthood. "Bug Tales" is a great book because it keeps on going even after it is read. Hey this little book is much like the beetle itself.
Rating: Summary: Great Book Review: It was a fun book filled with great stories about a great little. I hope to see a follow up to this one.
Rating: Summary: Enjoyable, great for over busy schedule Review: Loved the stories, really liked the short story format, I'm to busy to read much but can get a complete story in a few minutes.
