My favorite chapter was chapter 2 when he talks about working at a magic shop at Disneyland in the early days of Disneyland. I liked the beginning and end of the book but the rest of the book was pretty dry and boring for me to read. It was interesting to read about his humble background and how much work it is to be a comedian.
