4.0 out of 5 stars Maine stories to tickle your funnybone, August 5, 2006

This review is from: The New Saturday Night at Moody's Diner (Paperback)

Sample introduced me to Maine humor which includes a chapter on choosing the proper lawn ornaments for in front of your trailer and how to give directions to uppity tourists. Think of Larry the Cable Guy with a Maine accent.

The jokes are often one-liners, but the descriptions of the local settings and characters sure are fun as he sets the scene for the punch line.

Stephen King wrote the intro for the book. Fun reading while vacationing in Maine or if you live there.

This book was wonderful from beginning to end. The stories were great, hilarious, and fun! I read the book for a book report, and as far as I know, my teacher is reading it right now! The pictures were great, and being from Maine myself, made this book much more enjoyible and fun!
