I was hoping Eats, Shites & Leaves: Crap English and How to Use It would be an entertaining response to the original, with essays about how to break the rules for effect. Instead it is a compendium of hard to spell words, poorly worded advertisements, silly politician misspeakings, and other short jokes about the English language. As a bathroom book of short humorous pieces I give it a B+, but as a parody of the panda book only a C-.
