Childhood

I love bill Cosby books. He still ranks up there with being funny

...and that is a good thing. In this book, his fourth, Cosby again collects some of his material from his comic routines to compare and contrast his childhood with that of his children. I have alway found Cosby at his funniest whenever he shares the misadventures of his youth in the projects. The book also has a warm, nostalgic feel for a time long past. Sadly some of my favorite routines (i.e. "Chicken Heart" and the one where he and Weird Harold stay far longer at a horror movie than they should have) are absent, something that keeps the book from getting five stars. Nonetheless the book is a laughter inducing read. Recommended.

Coz is on a roll in this one. I laughed all the way through. It's like listening to one of his old standup records!

A good book. Funny, but a little hard to comprehend. He was young around the same time my parents were. Still a very entertaining book.

Do you like Bill Cosby? If so, then you love this book. Dr. Cosby, comically, rhapsodises about many events from his childhood including his search for Spaqnsih Fly and his run-ins with his brother Russel. The book is easy to read and very light-hearted, much like the doctor himself. For anyone who was ever a child, this book is well worth the time to read.
