Because I had remembered the first in the series to be hysterically funny, so I figured I read this one as well.

Although I saw the humor & intelligence behind the letters, I found them tedious and inane.

Amazingly many of the people Lazlo wrote to, took him very seriously and actually responded in a sincere manner....

It was interesting to read many of the responses. In fact it was amazing that he received as many responses as he did, when it is obvious that the letters are "crank letters".

I read this when it first came out and thought it hysterically funny & intelligent....

I read it again 2 nights ago, and although I saw the humor & intelligence behind the letters, I found them tedious and inane.

Amazingly many of the people Lazlo wrote to, took him very seriously and actually responded in a sincere manner....

So obviously in the past 27 years my sense of humor has changed.

Absolutely brilliant satire. You will never look at a tubful of Mr. Bubbles the same.

The funniest book ever published. Ever. I read this in a book store in 1985 and made a complete fool of myself trying not to laugh. The tears ran down my cheeks. Its a send up of the typical high school yearbook, only the students are all sheep. All the photos are of sheep. It's absolutely insane. Until the UFO's come... then it's beyond insane. I wish to high heck that my mother didn't throw my copy away when I moved out of the house. I haven't found a copy since.
