5.0 out of 5 stars Easily the funniest baby animal book ever. Ever.
I picked this book up thinking "Oh, puppy!" Then I read the title. After 3 pages I was laughing so hard I was trying not to snort. Then my husband joined me and similarly lost it. I snorted about half way through the book, causing most of the store to look at me. When asked by said husband how much the book was I replied, "It doesn't matter, whatever it is is worth...

3.0 out of 5 stars Read, Laugh, Mail, Laugh Some More
This is a book of 40 postcards, each with a cute picture of one or more animals and an edgy "bad news" message. They are hit-you-in-the-gut funny. My top five favorites are:

- Your baby's ugly
- You're my least favorite child
- You're the father
- You're not the father
- Your band sucks

I'm gonna get some mileage out of...

5.0 out of 5 stars Easily the funniest baby animal book ever. Ever., November 5, 2008
This review is from: Grandma's Dead: Breaking Bad News with Baby Animals (Paperback)
I picked this book up thinking "Oh, puppy!" Then I read the title. After 3 pages I was laughing so hard I was trying not to snort. Then my husband joined me and similarly lost it. I snorted about half way through the book, causing most of the store to look at me. When asked by said husband how much the book was I replied, "It doesn't matter, whatever it is is worth it." I plan on sending out all these wonderful little post cards, and then buying another book to keep around forever. If you have issues with confrontation, or just really dislike the people you know, this books for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic gift for real friends, December 2, 2008

Seriously, this is a perfect gift for friends. I am buying them for all my friends for the holidays. It's also a perfect book to have on the coffee table. Nothing's better for awkward silences then to have a book that has little puppies with a quote "it's not me, it's you." While I might never send these to anyone (and I hope I never have syphillis) it's a fantastic idea and a perfect gift for those who know how to laugh.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hillarious!, March 21, 2009
By 
This review is from: Grandma's Dead: Breaking Bad News with Baby Animals (Paperback)
The idea for this book is simple but hillarious. The book contains 20 or 30 "postcards" (which you can leave in the book or tear out and send to people) with very cute pictures of baby animals and a "bad news" caption at the bottom, such as the example given on the front of the book. The combination of pictures of kittens and bunnys with things like "The Donor Backed Out", "Your Babies Ugly" and "It's Malignant" really are a hillarious contrast.

Great to look through when you need a laugh.

I'm gonna get some mileage out of this one. After everyone in the family laughs their way through it, I'll take it into the office and pass it around in one of those "check your name off" folders we use to get birthday cards signed. Then I'll mail a few postcards.

I'll suggest a quick look through the book if you buy it in a store. The postcards are kind of easy to tear out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious, November 23, 2008
This review is from: Grandma's Dead: Breaking Bad News with Baby Animals (Paperback)
This book of postcards has the cutest pictures and when combined with the different bad news like "you're bad in bed," it is so funny. Great gift idea.

5.0 out of 5 stars Laugh guiltily -- out loud, December 12, 2008
This review is from: Grandma's Dead: Breaking Bad News with Baby Animals (Paperback)
I read through this "book" of postcards in a bookstore and before I got ten pages into it I was ready to fall down from laughing. The text contrasts with the images so incredibly hard that you will find yourself repeating, "Sick... Sick... Sick..." I DARE anyone to read through it and NOT laugh out loud until they cried. For around ten bucks, this would be a great addition to any office cubicle (provided your coworkers can handle hysterical but less-than-PC subject matter).

These were very well made. Wish that the title page were actually a card you could SEND, though. It was not. Very funny, nonetheless.

5.0 out of 5 stars I feel guilty for laughing as much as I did, February 5, 2009
By 
This review is from: Grandma's Dead: Breaking Bad News with Baby Animals (Paperback)
Almost cruel, completely deranged and perfectly hysterical in every sense of the word. My boyfriend and I got a good ab work out from all the laughing we did while flipping through these bad news bears (and bunnies, and cats, and dogs and......you get the idea!)

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Book and a Barrel of Laughs!, December 22, 2011
This review is from: Grandma's Dead: Breaking Bad News with Baby Animals (Paperback)
I was SO happy when I came across this book! I was conflicted as to what I was going to put into my (not-so PC) boss' holiday gift basket and was just tickled to death when I found this. A perfect stocking stuffer for anyone that enjoys a good giggle!
