Today in the Booknook there are some interesting books in the Humor section. Erma Bombeck's Giant Economy Size. A very funny book of full of anecdotes and cartoons. The book has probably never even been read, the spine is very stiff, so it's in very good condition. Also, Dave Barry Turns Forty, by Dave Barry of course. And a very interesting humor book, Politically Correct Bedtime Stories by James Finn Gardner, complete with dust jacket! Here is the opening for the story Snow White: "Once there was a young princess who was not at all unpleasant to look at and had a temperament that many people found to be more pleasant than most other people's. Her nickname was Snow White, indicative of the discriminatory notions of associating pleasant or attractive qualities with light, and unpleasant or unattractive qualities with darkness." Lots of stories of yore twisted to fit our new politically correct mantra. A bestseller at $1. At the Booknook now!
