by Graham Roumieu (Author) "It true, Bigfoot career been in hole lately..." (more)

Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Like many reclusive celebrities, Big Foot is misunderstood. In his touching memoir Me Write Book he wants to set the record straight, proving that although he's larger, hairier, and more foul-smelling than most of us, he's really not so different underneath.

Only the most cold-hearted among us could look on without compassion as this hirsute Everyman struggles bravely with parental abandonement, Pringles potato crisps, embarrassing moments with peach schnapps, the desperate loneliness of personal ads, and 'roid rage.

Readers will never forget the plaintive voice from the wilderness that howls from every page of this searing, intimate account of a man-beast in the promised land.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious!!, December 9, 2005

By	Carl R. Bauman "boomerbooks" (Pennsylvania, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is by far the funniest book I have ever read! Written from the perspective of Bigfoot, this memior takes the reader through the rollercoaster life of Bigfoot as he experiences the ups and downs of any hollywood star. From the first page on, I couldn't stop laughing as Bigfoot eloquently describes his most personal experiences. If you have a bit of a twisted sense of humor, you will love this very unique, and I think, extremely clever book about a very misunderstood forrest dweller.

5.0 out of 5 stars dont listen to that "honest joe" review, April 29, 2006

By	K. Morris - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

the one-star review by honest joe is AWFUL. he completely misses the humor here, and believe me, it's hard to miss what roumieu is doing. it's bigfoot's memoir...yes, everything ends ugly (typically with bigfoot smashing someone's head in), but what else would bigfoot do? as a matter of fact, i kinda wish bigfoot would read 'honest joe's' review. ("me smash hed in!") roumieu's books are brilliant & silly & sweet, and what roumieu's really doing is having endless fun sending up modern pop culture. it's great great stuff~!
