like most

she did, again and again, with The Little Book of Dumb
Feng Shui (1999), The Little Book of Beauty
(2001), The Little Book of Crap (2001) and The
Little Book of Household Madness (2001). But one thought

There
was a simple answer. Write a book with many thoughts on
many pages. She did, and called it Living With Crazy
Buttocks. This book is another comical milestone in
the in the career of Kaz Cooke, journalist, cartoonist,
well-known author of Real Gorgeous (1994) and self-proclaimed
popcorn seller. Moving away from her previous titles such
as The Modern Girl's Guide To Sex (1989) and the
Gorgeous phenomenon, which have offered an exclusive
audience hilarious advice in specialised areas, Cooke
sets her sights at the entire self-help industry.
