NASTYbook is a SUMMER 2005 CHILDREN'S BOOK SENSE PICK! Check out Barry's interview - NPR Weekend Edition Sunday (May 29) TOUR DATES Barry is not on tour at this time. REVIEWS "Noble, worthy, educational, morally uplifting: Barry Yourgrau’s NASTYbook is none of these things. It’s not actually chicken soup for anybody’s soul, unless it’s the kind of chicken soup that has weird things floating in the depths, and that nobody survives drinking. But NASTYbook is very funny, not to mention seriously dark and magnificently nasty, and is thus the perfect book for the budding Count Olaf or Sauron in your family. Or for you." —Neil Gaiman, Author of Coraline
"Be warned: these tales are addictive. Read one and you will crave more, and more, and...." —Patrick McGrath, Author of Asylum
"Absolutely delightful. I grew up reading the poems of Shel Silverstein and this book is a sort of Where the Sidewalk Ends meets Aesop's Fables." —Autumn Spurlock, Browsing Bison Bookstore,
Deer Lodge MT "Deliciously macabre... ideal for reading aloud" —Kirkus Reviews
"An incredibly mind-bending set of tales that are guaranteed to capture the attention of any young adult who would not normally pick up a book! Each story is unique and set in such realistic settings that you are drawn into the bizarre endings!" —Paulette Goodman, Anderson's Bookstore,
Naperville, IL "Barry is just amazing." —Mark Adam, Mrs. Nelson's Book Fair Company
"We have some high hopes for Barry's book." —Philip Prock, Books Inc., San Francisco, CA
"Barry's reading was amazing, it's funny how you can sometimes forget the power of a true performer. Please let Barry know how much I enjoyed the book and his reading." —Shannon Mathis, Children’s Buyer, Books Inc.
"Kids who appreciate black humor... will enjoy these stories, the nastier the better." —The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
