has gloss | eng: Uncle Johns Bathroom Readers are a series of books containing trivia and short essays on miscellaneous topics, ostensibly for reading in the bathroom. The books are credited to the Bathroom Readers Institute, though Uncle John is a real person. The introductions in the books, as well as brief notes in some articles, provide small pieces of information about Uncle John. The first book was published in 1988, and in 2009, the series reached its 22nd release, The Endlessly Engrossing Bathroom Reader. |
