Absorbing Spongebob: Ten Ways to Squeeze More Happiness Out of Life

Loved this book. Read it in small segments during lunch breaks at work. At times I swore the author had been in an office meeting with me. I read a lot of spiritual, personal growth book and this was so concise and funny but so on target. I'd never watched a Sponge Bob cartoon episode but fell in love with the character while reading the book. I just put a Sponge Bob video in my shopping cart.

...that a man who writes about vampires and monsters run amok in the Pentagon is really a laid back, softie at heart? This book cracked me up and snuck in a lesson or two when I wasn't paying attention...Sponge Bob is the Looney Tunes of the new millennium and Steven Harriman cracked the code first!

You don't have to be a big SpongeBob fan to enjoy this fun and informative book (I have rarely seen the show but am the father of three young SpongeBob fans). The author neatly intertwines real-life situations with events from SpongeBob episodes that he explains with the right amount of detail so that even those unfamiliar with SpongeBob will get the point about love, fear, getting along with others, getting along with yourself, and even theology ... all of which are explored in a series of short and witty chapters, full of plenty of nautical puns to soak up (plus cleverly drawn cartoons)!
