Dave Barry's Greatest Hits

The best comparison I could make is with Doglas Adams, for his wry observations on life. A great read, and the ideal book for sitting through in the smallest room of the house, for hours on end!


Dave Barry is the funniest person to put pen to paper   October 10, 1998

This book will have you on the floor rolling. My favorite was about that flu where the air molecules attack you, and the act of brushing your teeth can cause you to need to sleep, and the dog tries to lick your ears off. Been there, done that. Everyone should have to read this book. DAVE BARRY IS THE FUNNIEST MAN EVER PUT ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH. (that writes books, because Mel Brooks is funny too, but Dave Barry doesn't need to crude to be funny)

Barry's observations are the funniest I have ever read. These selections were first published in the Miami Herald. I usually don't laugh out loud when I read, but this had me howling. All the articles are short and sweet. I was also impressed that he could write about the death of his father in a humorous, yet touching way. Truly a gifted humorist.


Not his very best, but his usual hilarity and charm.   January 31, 1996

I am a huge fan of Dave Barry. He is the funniest columnist, possibly man, on earth!! This book is kind of short, but it still packs quite a punch. A MUST BUY!
