Uncle John's Bathroom Reader

If you are a trivia buff like me and like to peruse the bathroom readers
such as Uncle John's Bathroom Reader. This is the audio book for you. Granted I am on my third listen through on this one to pick it all up. Of course some are more intriguing than others but on the whole very interesting material split up among several readers so you never get tired of just one narrator's voice.

I've long been a fan of Uncle John's readers, and have whiled away far more time than necessary reading them in the comfort and privacy of the smallest room in the house.

I was quite excited to think that Uncle John would now read to me in the car and while I'm out walking.

The listen was very enjoyable, with many interesting factoids, riddles and trivia.

The book seems a little dated (and I note the original reader was printed in 1988) but most of the stuff holds up well.

I liked the alternating readers, although there was one (a woman with a British-ish accent) whose manner I found a little jarring.

A minor complaint is that this is apparently an abridged version. I would like my full measure of trivia.

I hope that we will soon hear more from Uncle John.

A lot of fun. If you only have five minutes in your car or an hour on the bus, this is the perfect book to listen to. Lots of fun facts, riddles and trivia.

I've always enjoyed the printed versions of the Bathroom Readers, so I got this on a whim, hoping that my tweener kids would enjoy it too. They can't get enough of it. I wish Audible also carried the newer version from 2005.

If you like trivia, you'll love this book, my only complaint is I wanted more.

Facts, FUN, Fabulous

I liked the trivia about baseball.

I enjoyed the story about the man who read his own obituary that was written by mistake. He wasn't pleased with what was said. So he decided to change his life.
