From the perils of French dentistry to the eating habits of the Australian kookaburra, from the squat-style toilets of Beijing to the particular wilderness of a North Carolina Costco, we learn about the absurdity and delight of a curious traveler's experiences. Whether railing against the habits of litterers in the English countryside or marveling over a disembodied human arm in a taxidermist's shop, Sedaris takes us on side-splitting adventures that are not to be forgotten.

I would read David Sedaris' grocery list. I promise you it would make me laugh. Out loud. Sedaris and Bill Bryson are the only authors who make me do that.

David Sedaris never fails to be funny, as well as charming, insightful, and fascinating. In "Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls," Sedaris revisits his family, travels, and frustrations with his characteristic hilarious snarkiness (if that's a word). I thoroughly enjoyed it.
