Little Billy’s Letters is a zany collection of correspondence and memorabilia from the famous and infamous, responses to the cheeky and hilarious queries of a curious “little boy” named Billy (in reality, a fully grown Bill Geerhart). Fans of the bestselling Letters from a Nut and The Lazlo Letters, as well as Ali G and Borat aficionados, will howl at “Little Billy’s” wickedly, insanely hysterical childish scrawls and less-than-innocent questions to world leaders, Supreme Court justices, celebrities, CEOs, and serial killers…and the truly astonishing answers they elicited!

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

What do Tori Spelling, the Church of Scientology, and Donald Rumsfeld all have in common?: They -- and many others -- have answered letters from "Little Billy", a grown man with a cache of stamps and far too much time on his hands. Funny, touching, and delightfully quirky, Billy's letters cover a broad range of subject matter:

  • Operation Drop-Out: Considering dropping out of elementary school, Billy writes to serial killers and celebrities seeking their wise counsel.

  • Billy's Law: Which Supreme Court Justice prefers the Big Mac to the Whopper? Who is Janet Reno's favorite crime fighter? What does Robert Shapiro say is the best defense for being framed for murder? Billy finds out.

  • The Making of the Class President: Billy runs for class president and collects "endorsements" from Nancy Reagan, Dick Cheney, George HW Bush, Gerald Ford, Bob Dole, Ken Starr, and Colin Powell.

  • Choosing My Religion: Billy asks representatives from the Catholic, Presbyterian, Mormon, Raelian, Satanic, Scientologist, Hare Krishna and Unification Church (Moonies) what is "cool" or "easy" about their religion.

Presidents, Supreme Court Justices, Celebrities, Heads of Corporations, Serial Killers, Robot Makers, and the NesQuick Bunny have all replied to "Little Billy's" scrawled questions.
