I'm thinking maybe the other reviewer didn't read the description, which tells you it's SILLY. but they are quite silly and I have caught myself LOL many times already. Think Bennett Serf, George Burns, and you've got the idea.

Perfect reader for Stephen Leacock

Tricia G seems perfectly sincere in her reading of these zany pieces by Stephen Leacock— I mean, sounding amazed the entire time.

I did not like this book


(1 Stern)

The stories were hard to follow and get into. I listened to the first four chapters 2x and it was just too boring for me. Gave up and moved on.

Completely agree with MommeeMadre, The story's are absolutely hilarious! If you enjoyed this book, it would be wise to listen to the other book of the author, Nonsense Novels. Thanks Trisha G!!
