I thought this was a fantastic book. I read this book after I had been to Australia and thought if I had known before how many dangerous creatures were native to the country I might have changed my mind :) For me they were a lot of laughs out loud moments---but that might be just because my sense of humour can be a tad warped :) Seriously though Mr. Bryson does an amazing job with this book -- both funny and informative.

Oh man. Yet another ridiculously funny book by Bill. I've never been to Australia, but my gosh, he makes his crazy trip so enjoyable to read along with. Priceless dry wit and such memorable characters- it's a treat to read. A must read for anyone who loves Bill, travel, humour, or has travelled to Australia.
