Humor Books

If you believe in the idea of laughter as the best medicine, then you'll find enough laughs among our Humor Books to put all the doctors on the planet out of business. Some of the sharpest comic minds around put their talents on paper, including the likes of Tina Fey, Ellen DeGeneres, and Stephen Colbert, but that's not all you'll find in our gut-busting grab bag of Humor Books. There are cartoon anthologies offering the best of everything from the Calvin and Hobbes strips to the skewed sensibilities of Edward Gorey, collections of stories from essential satirical sources like The Onion, and much more. Even if you enter frowning, you'll leave laughing, but why leave at all?
