Humour

A few words from the author and eponymous columnist behind "The Onion's" column, "A Room of Jean's Own," Jean Teasdale: Hi Jeanketeers and Jeanketeers-to-be!! As The "Onion's" very own humour and human-interest columnist, I've been entertaining readers for fifteen years with kooky tales of life with my hubby and our two feline children. Now for the first time, li'l ol' me shines front-and-center in a book of my very own! "A Book of Jean's Own!" features all-original, never-before-published material, and if that wasn't impressive enough, marks the very first "Onion" book by a solo writer! Historical, huh? My book is sure to find an eager audience among The "Onion's" ten million-strong readership. Wait, ten million people? I had no idea! Frankly, that scares me a little. We're not in Kansas anymore, Toto! (Oh shoot, I should have put that hilarious phrase in my book!) "A Book of Jean's Own!" also marks a departure from past "Onion" books in that it isn't crammed with headlines and articles in teeny-weeny print! Instead, I write about the stuff that really matters: shopping, chocolate, part-time jobs, and hot Hollywood hunks!
Whether you read my book on the bus, the beach, or the toilet, you're guaranteed to find something to chuckle at and deeply relate to!
