4.0 out of 5 stars This isn't supposed to be about Carrot Top.
Perhaps the single greatest problem with other reviews of this book: they think it's about Carrot Top. Ryan McGinness usurps the iconography of contemporary culture into visual designs that force a re-examination of the source and the viewer. That's big kid stuff, but this is a monograph by an artist, not a picture book about a comedian. If you aren't familiar with...

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't bother!
This is a picture book with a lot of pics that can be seen on Carrot Top's official web site. Poorly bound - falling apart after the second look-through. Even a diehard fan will be dissapointed unless you really like pictures. If you like a book with actual text to read, buy "Junk in the Truck".

5.0 out of 5 stars i really liked the book...sorry if u didn't, July 16, 2001

This review is from: Carrot Top (Paperback)
hey there....i ordered my book on line and i loved it...it has plenty of beautiful pics about Carrot Top as well as alot of art surrounding the book...i'm very happy w/ it...sorry others may not be...it was more of an art book[post modern art grafics surround the photos] not a tell or gossip book like alot of people may have thought...i think it was a great project for both the preformer Carrot Top as well as the artist ryan McGinness and and shows many different sides of this preformer which alot of people may not know or are curious about....i also feel that it was geared towards a younger crowd like the collage age /post collage fans thats why alot of older/middleaged people who see it may not appreciate it like i have -ami

I love the Top and think he's the best. Here is the best inside look at the man behind the myth! Carrot Top is both funny and amazing.

5.0 out of 5 stars I liked it TOO!, July 17, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Carrot Top (Paperback)
This book is not what you might expect, it's BETTER. A very colorful "out there" and one-of-a-kind art book that perfectly complements all the funny great things Carrot Top has done including those awesome new AT&T commercials. I too had a problem with the binding and sent mine back - apparently the first 50 copies were glued wrong. I got a super nice letter from the publisher AND a perfect brand new copy of the book - signed by Carrot Top!
