“The twists and wanderings of LJL's interpretations of well know quotations were uniquely his own and led me places lined with laughter and giggles. The illustrations mesh flawlessly, and when all is said and done, this book is a top-shelf laughter elixir.”

I smiled the whole time I was reading this and was disappointed when I was done. This book isn't as silly as I expected -- most of the quotes were quite good, and the additions were quite clever. I'm going to read this again for enjoyment, but I also hope to try doing this myself, adding to great quotes, because this was such fun. Thanks to NetGalley for letting me read this

Clever concept. Clearly stateed, start with a famous quote and then complete it by turning it around, making it silly, cynical and fun. The book is well written, funny, and nicely illustrated. This concept of completing the quote and turning it inside out will lead to many party games. The book was a quick and enjoyable read, bringing many smiles to this old man, he played one, he played knick knack . . . blah blah blah.
