I'm Laughing Because I'm Crying by Youngmi Mayer

fast-paced

5.0

When I was little, my uncle used to tell me a transliteration of a Korean saying that frames this book. His version was: “if you laugh while crying you’ll grow hair on your bottom,” a prospect that, like the author, I found to be so silly that it never failed to make me laugh, even if I had just been crying. 

My uncle is dead.
