Product Description
A great gift and a must-have companion to all the other Uncle John's books, Wonderful World of Odd is a compendium of kookiness for which Uncle John gets to do what he does best: dig up the oddest, strangest, most bizzare tales and true facts from this weird, weird world. What do you get when you combine the world's longest ear hair, a woman whose legs were broken by a flying pig, a college student who got credit for dressing like a lobster and living in a box for three months, and a man who patented a method for determining the sex of a spinach plant? You get Uncle John's Bathroom Reader Wonderful World of Odd, the best of the weirdest news, facts and fun from all over the world. Fans of the bestselling Uncle John's Bathroom Reader series know that Uncle John can fascinate them with tales from the stranger side of life like nobody else. And this newest title will not disappoint. It is indeed a weird, wonderful, odd world.

This review is from: Uncle John's Bathroom Reader Wonderful World of Odd (Paperback)
I just love reading these books. My Uncle John library is growing by leaps and bounds. The daily bits of trivia I read are helping to keep my mind sharp as I struggle to remember and re-tell the interesting stories I read. Keep them coming, please. I am so looking forward to the book about music coming out next month. Thanks Uncle John.

BRI out of reading material?, May 17 2007
By Avid Reader "Avid REader" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Uncle John's Bathroom Reader Wonderful World of Odd (Paperback)
As a long time fan of Uncle John and the BRI, I am sorry to say that I was disappointed by this one. The writing is not as good as the other books in the BRI library, nor is the information. I would unhesitatingly recommend the other volumes by Uncle John to anyone...but, sorry, not this one. it seems that BRI is running out of fodder.

Bathroom reader at it again, Nov 8 2008
By Courtney Rabideau - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Uncle John's Bathroom Reader Wonderful World of Odd (Paperback)
The bathroom readers are always filled with very interesting stories, this one is no exception. Filled with stories such as the mysterious deaths of lots of people and animals around a lake in Africa this book will keep you entertained for hours.
