+ Want to read

Comedian Chris Elliott son of Older comedian Bob Elliott tells the (maybe fictional, maybe just embellished) story of his upbringing. Each chapter is followed by a rebuttal by Bob Elliott. Possibly one of the most hilarious things 9 years old me ever read. It holds a special place in my heart. You should read it. You will not be disappointed.
