laughed till our sides split!

My whole family loved this book - great for all ages. Side splittingly funny, especially as a family read aloud!
WAY TO GO, WINCHELL!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
What a fun and totally wacky book! The wild humor will delight both kids and adults. I especially loved the stories within the story -- so bizarre you can't help but laugh. And Steve Young's twisted history scenes are wonderfully creative. Teachers will find WINCHELL MINK a hilarious choice for reading aloud to entertain and encourage reluctant readers to love books. I can't wait to read Winchell's NEXT adventure!
Great Story For Reading Aloud
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Winchell Mink is embarks on an imaginative journey that will leave readers of all ages cheering. It's almost too funny to keep to yourself and begs to be a classroom or family read aloud. The chapters are engaging, the character's plight universal, and the laughter non-stop. Winchell Mink would make a great addition to any home or school library.
Great for *almost* any age
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Okay. I must admit that I'm not entirely done with the book, but I had to stop reading for a moment to pet my turtle and wipe the tears from my eyes. Been launghing WAY too much.Young's characters are so colorful, and the only thing better than the great narrative are the mental gymnastics the main character goes through. It's a great book for 9 to 14 year olds, 17 year olds, 32-37 year olds, anyone older than 53 (provided they still have a sense of wonder and imagination), and dinosaurs who can read. And no matter what your age, I recommend reading it to someone else. It's funny in my own warped head, but EXTREMELY funny when you have to say this stuff out loud.That all said, it's a great lesson to any reader about the importance of finding the good in anything bad and overcoming adversity. Read it to someone you like to giggle with today.
I Laughed My Butt Off!

Okay, not literally...although my butt does resemble a plunger. However I can sum up Winchell Mink in one sentence. This is undoubtedly the FUNNIEST book I've ever read!
