In this hilarious collection of observations, Cosby brings us more of his wonderful and wacky insights into the human condition that are sure to become classics. In the tradition of Fat Albert, I DIDN'T ASK TO BE BORN offers a host of new characters, including Peanut Armhouse and Old Mother Harold. Not since Mushmouth, Dumb Donald, Bucky and the Cosby Kids has there been such a memorable cast.
Over the past century few entertainers have achieved the legendary status of William H. Cosby Jr. His success spans five decades and virtually all media-remarkable accomplishments for a kid who emerged from humble beginnings in a Philly housing project.
In the tradition of his bestselling books, Fatherhood and Cosbyology, the doctor of comedy holds forth on everything from first love to the Bible. Bill Cosby may not have asked to be born, but we're sure glad he was.

Hardback. Etat : Very Good. Booth, George (illustrateur). The world's most beloved funnyman is back with I DIDN'T ASK TO BE BORN, his first humor book since the best selling Cosbyology. Sample chapters include: * Missing Pages: Bill Cosby owns eight Bibles, all written in English. They were published at different times. One of them was printed in 1709. Another came over on the Santa Maria. They're all very old but none are autographed. One thing these Bibles have in common is the fact that he's convinced there are missing pages. * The Morphamization of Peanut Armhouse: When Peanut's mother calls him to dinner and he refuses to leave the softball field, a young Bill Cosby witnesses a sight that haunts him to this day. * If (But not by Rudyard Kipling): If Native Americans knew then what they know now, America would be quite a different place. * Too Late For Me But Perhaps Not For You: How Bill Cosby handles a teenage daughter who refuses to clean her room. Cosby's millions of fans will be excited and delighted to pick up this truly brilliant book from a comedic legend. N° de réf. du vendeur CIN0892969202VG
