[.uk] The Stupid Crook Book (ISBN 0740726943)

The stories are funny but the packaging is so-so:
The thing here is to not confuse the real-life stupid (and funny) stories with the packaging that these stories are delivered to us. While each story is condensed to about a page there is a regular attempt on each and every account to hide some little fact at the start of the story, use that hidden fact as the punch line, and then finish the story with some poor pun on the crimial being caught, spending time behind bars, etc. On any given item it works, but it quickly becomes tedious when reading the book cover to cover. I think this book is best taken by reading no more than 3 or 4 stories at a time, or for reading one aloud and your next gathering of friends. The cover price is a little high in my estimation. Get it at a discount and you'll do ok.

A total crackup!:
One story is funnier than the next. This is one of those laugh-out-loud books that you want to share with a friend (or anyone who happens to be nearby)! Never thought I'd get such a kick out of crime! Fun little book to give to friends.

Hilarious!:
These idiot crook out-takes are belly-achingly funny. Some of these criminals are so stupid it's unbelievable, but that's what makes it so funny. Not one to miss!

SIDE-SPLITTING HUMOR!:
What a riot! It is impossible to put this book down. The misadventures of the criminals in The Stupid Crook Book provide endless laughs for anyone. You won't believe some of the antics these criminals involve themselves in. If you or anyone you know is in need of a good laugh, this is the perfect book!

A Shrinks Workshop:
Amazing how many people needing three hots and a cot from our penal institutions.
