Customer Reviews

Visual/Verbal Treat

Oh that every waiting room, subway car, bus, or departure lounge would have a book like this available. A sweet confection of a book that is at once both funny and clever. There is a 2005 calendar made from this book too that I have spotted around the web; both make great gifts for anyone who appreciates the idiomatic richness of our language - and a good groanful pun.

Great fun with puns

If you appreciate a good pun, then get ready to laugh. "Who You Callin' a Cheetah?" is a humorous collection of illustrated puns done somewhat in a style similar to Far Side. Some were so funny that I just had to share them right away, and others were only mildly humorous. Then when I shared the book with someone else they thought some of the other ones even more humorous. Well I guess that has always been the case with puns, everyone has their idea of what is funniest. It is a fairly short book and can be read through in about fifteen minutes or so at the most. I would say that it makes a nice short diversion on a busy day to pick it up and enjoy one or two of the puns except I found I couldn't put it down until I had read them all.

Another Far Side

J. Tom Cooper, a radio network book review editor., January 16, 2004, A great source of puns and groanersMichael Zittel and Lloyd Leifer have a winner in this book. If you don't like one illustrated pun, the next one will make you laugh. It reminds me a lot of Gary Larsen's Farside humor. It is well worth the $9.95 you pay. Put it on a coffee table or even next to the toilet for short-term diversion and laughter.

Next Step Up from the Far Side

If you loved or even liked the Far Side you have to get this book. I've even gone so far as to hang some of the jokes up in my cube. Now all my coworkers want to borrow it. The jokes are clean enough so my daughter can read it, but have the subtlety that only adults can appreciate. Check it out!
