I Didn't Ask to Be Born (But I'm Glad I Was) by Bill Cosby

From Library Journal: "Written in the same fashion as Cosby's highly successful Cosbyology, his latest is a welcome collection of irresistibly funny observations and reminiscences. He writes the way he performs his stand-up comedy-he rambles on but keeps you interested to see whether he eventually returns to his original topic (he does, with his usual finesse). Cosby's storytelling covers his experiences parenting as well as his own childhood memories growing up in Philadelphia in the 1940s; a tirade about the once-popular Cabbage Patch dolls; and his hilarious thoughts on what it must have been like in the Old West (circling the wagons in under eight seconds takes practice!). This is a book with which everyone can identify on some level; it is humor at its best. Highly recommended."
