Title: If Roast Beef Could Fly : Book and CD by Jay Leno, S. B. Whitehead ISBN: 0-689-86767-0 Publisher: Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing Pub. Date: 23 March, 2004 Format: School & Library Binding Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $17.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 3.57 (7 reviews)
Rating: 3
Summary: Leno fans should buy this book.
Comment: This is a story from Jay's childhood that reads like a monolog on the Tonight Show. Jay's dad is larger than life, but the characters feel like caricatures. Whitehead's colorful and detailed drawings also remind me of caricatures. While this is a loving family story, it contains some stereotypes about national origin. The book comes with a CD of Jay reading the story. Leno fans should buy this book.
Rating: 1
Summary: Another Celebrity Disaster
Comment: A book completely predicated on Leno's celebrity status and old steroetype jokes about American immigrant groups. This book relies solely on personal Leno gags and leaves much to be desired in terms of actual plot development. It is not an engaging book for children but rather for their parents who are fans of Leno. Basically, If Roast Beef Could Fly is a disappointing book especially if you're not interested in performing second-hand stand-up routines for children.
Rating: 5
Summary: Father, son and dog story
Comment: Greatest thing about reviewing a children's book is that you don't have to read 500 pages. This book is shorter than a short Leno monologue. Nice illustrations by S.B. Whitehead are a major part of the book. The story shows an energetic father, slightly mischievous son and forgiving father and loveable dog who saves the situation. Good for children and enjoying it can help adults to relax.
