Publisher's summary

Yes, it's true: Pulitzer Prize-winning author Dave Barry's columns get out of the paper and sent around more than those of any other columnist in America. Join Dave as he runs for president, plays Claptonesque guitar in the world's most literary band (The Rock-Bottom Remainders), and gets the real scoop on all those UFO sightings. Warning: Dave Barry has a knack for giving his readers a few laughs and lots of expensive merchandise (ordered from the Home Shopping Club). No, we're not making this up!

Dave Barry Makes Me Happy

I love Dave Berry. He makes me smile. He makes me laugh so hard I cry. And sometimes he makes me think. He can be tender and serious, as this book proves out. But mostly he just makes me happy. Sometimes I just can't take another heavy book, and I need a little fun and lightness in my life. That is the time to turn to Dave Barry.

Narrator Arte Johnson is perfect for this book. I just didn't want it to end.

Perfect family road trip book

Enough humor to keep you awake, no language or topics that were too uncomfortable (actually there was one we skipped over). Info that kept us talking during stops. Bits and pieces that make you feel a little smarter for reading. Can't ask for more than that!
