Review (PDF) The Bart Book (Simpsons Library Of Wisdom)
The Bart Book is now being released in hardback, as part of the ongoing series: The Simpsons Library of Wisdom. Bart Simpson, the much–maligned, misunderstood, under–appreciated 'underachiever', comes clean and (God help us!) it's worse than we thought. Now the truth can be told at last as Bart offers up his school survival guide, secret codes, pullable pranks, dream tattoos, favourite El Barto 'tags', and the Christmas list to end all lists (and future visits from Santa). It's the worst, we mean . the best book ever! In The Simpsons Library of Wisdom, Matt Groening, the creator of 'The Simpsons', offers an ongoing series of portable and quotable books that will eliminate the need for all religions and philosophies, exalt man's role in the universe and make the world a better place ... sort of. No other television show in history has commented so freely and so humorously on modern times, and there seems to be no end in sight for the sharp satire and pointed parody that 'The Simpsons' serves up every night of the week all around the world.

This slim little volume features everything you'd ever want to know about one of your favorite Simpsons characters, Bart. The book opens with a timeline reviewing all the significant milestones in Bart's life. The various "Bart Zones" sections describe in detail some of Bart's most-visited sites, including the school cafeteria and his tree house. Also featured are significant people in Bart's life, from his school friends and enemies to the girls who have stolen his heart. Of course, a book without Bart wouldn't be complete without some mischievousness, so you'll also get some ideas for making prank telephone calls as well as suggestions for Bart's "Dream Tattoos." Finally, the book begins and ends with Bart's Top 40 and his Bottom 40, respectively. A great stocking stuffer for any die-hard Simpsons fan!
This was bought as an extra surprise gift for my grandson's birthday. Very happy with it . Very colorful, good quality. I would recommend it to anybody. I'm sure my grandson is going to want the entire set.
My 8 year old son really loves this book! This book has been a great incentive for him to pick up and start reading on his own. There are some very slight inappropriate phrases in the book, but nothing too crazy. Overall, this book has been fantastic for him, and most importantly, it has kept his interest for months now. There is a lot to look at!
Brilliant! Includles profiles of characters like Fat Tony, as well as valuable sections such as "pullable pranks." Almost every page is a new original concept with one of the highlights being a delightful review of how to annoy adults by having "...fun with facial muscles." And did you know that Bart plans to change his name to Steve Bennett when he is older?AC CarrollSalt Lake City, Utah
It is a Christmas gift, so I cannot speak for the person receiving it, but I feel the book is rather wordy, so that is a little disappointing. However, it is cute, and I am sure the recipients will enjoy it.
This instalment was better than Comic Book Guy but not as good as Marge. I felt like there wasn't enough Bart in the Bart book. 50% of it was talking about other characters, not that I didn't enjoy what I learned about them, but this is the Bart book not the other secondary characters book.Despite that, this was still an enjoyable read and I look forward to reading the rest.
My family loves the Simpsons. For some reason they just can't get enough. So, I bought them the books. Not only did I buy the Bart book, I bought the Homer, Lisa, and Ned Flander's Book of Faith. They are all hilarious!If you are a Simpsons fan I highly recommend these books. They will make you laugh!
My son loves the Simpsons and wasn't too into reading. I thought what better way to get him into reading than buying him books about his beloved Simpsons. Sure enough he sat down with it and read it cover to cover without getting off the couch.
