Book Review By Claire Wood
Around the World With Auntie Mame by Patrick Dennis

In this sequel to "Auntie Mame", Patrick's young son is being Shanghied by Auntie Mame into traveling around the world for a year "to enhance his education". His mother, knowing the free spirit and eccentricities of this aunt is to say the least, reluctant to let her child do this..however her husband, Patrick (Mame's nephew, whom she raised from the age of 9) proceeds to tell his wife about HIS trip around the world with Auntie Mame. This book is more a series of long story chapters about the various places they visit and the wild adventures they have ..it is very hard for Mame to stay neutral on any issue and they do run into some amazing characters! Do prepare for big belly laughs in this wonderful book!
