My Uncle Podger


 
My Uncle Podger
illustrated by Wallace Trip 1975 

 One night Charlotte and I read this in bed, Chris was listening too.  We all were laughing so hard the bed was shaking.  I could barely get through reading it!  Jerome K. Jerome's 1889 story is funny enough, but Tripp's illustrations of the pompous bumbling Uncle Podger (in bunny form) take the hilarity to a new level!  Even just mentioning the story to each other gets us giggling again.
