Title: Michael McIntyre: Live and Laughing
Author: Michael McIntyre
Pages Read: 45
Genre: Non-fiction, Bibliography
Michael explains his life and how he got to be one of the most-payed comedians in the world. He tells of his life starting at him being a "large" child and growing from there. He had an aunt with a weird accent who was so rich that whenever he played chess with her, she would give him a 50 pound note whether he lost or not. Even though she later disowned him, he still had fun while it lasted. His dad was also a comedian, and his mum was a lot younger than the dad. However, she loved him and he loved her and they had Michael. A lot of his family were funny, and why shouldn't he? He did have to work a lot, but just goes to show a little effort can go a long way.
Here is one of his sketches: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70XfGDfNq0o
I recommend this book to people aged 12 and up since there are some swear words or words people are not comfortable with for whatever reason. I also suggest reading some pages twice since he speaks and writes in "Posh English" which sounds a bit like the Stereotypical Brit.
