About this product

Product Information

An indispensable reference for anyone who knows how to read--or wants to fool people into thinking they do-- The Funny Thing Is... is sure to make you laugh. Ellen DeGeneres published her first book of comic essays, the #1 bestselling My Point...And I Do Have One, way back in 1996. Not one to rest on her laurels, the witty star of stage and screen has since dedicated her life to writing a hilarious new book. That book is this book. After years of painstaking, round-the-clock research, surviving on a mere twenty minutes of sleep a night, and collaborating with lexicographers, plumbers, and mathematicians, DeGeneres has crafted a work that is both easy to use and very funny. Along with her trademark ramblings, The Funny Thing Is... contains hundreds of succinct insights into her psyche and offers innovative features including: -More than 50,000 simple, short words arranged in sentences that form paragraphs. -Thousands of observations on everyday life -- from terrible fashion trends to how to handle seating arrangements for a Sunday brunch with Paula Abdul, Diane Sawyer, and Eminem. -All twenty-six letters of the alphabet.

    Rating the book The Funny Thing is..

    This Book is really funny. I enjoy it, I decided to buy it because I like her show. She is a real funny comedian and the lady on eBay that i bid on this with was just wonderful! she went to extra lengths to be so sweet to me and suggested it to me, it helped her through some tough months of chemo and so, Yes, i enjoy the book.
