It's his own thoughts, words, memories and his interpretation of life and the modern world in general. This is far more than just another member autobiography. Feb 09, Nick Sanders rated it it was ok. Fun to read if you're a Slade fan, but in the end a bit of a moralizing booklet. Again, the Slade bits were fun, which amounts to about thirty of the hundred and fifty pages, the rest is neither fun nor interesting. He's a likeable chap, but he hasn't really got anything interesting to tell. Sep 30, Carol Sandford rated it really liked it. It was a joy reading about Noddy and his life and views. Only reason I gave it 4 stars was because I would have liked to have seen some pictures. Sep 02, Graham Richards rated it liked it. This is a good book to read, but I would of preferred a book that told the the trials and tribulations of noddy when he was with slade. But a good book for a bit of a laugh. A fun, cheeky and interesting read from the Nation Treasure that is Noddy Holder. It's very much as it says on the tin, part autobiographical, part life lessons, part insights and personal thoughts on the world we live in, topped off with a whole lot of common sense from Noddy. It maybe a generation thing, but I did find myself nodding a lot and agreeing at what Noddy has to say about social media, celebrity and, not so much politics, but The World According to Noddy: Life Lessons Learned in and Out of Rock & Roll way the country is run There's that hypothetical question about which people you would like to share a dinner party table with for an evening of fun and interesting The World According to Noddy: Life Lessons Learned in and Out of Rock & Roll, well, I'd now like to add Mr Holder to that list. This is a really cheery tome. He also has seventy pairs of shoes. Noddy would get m This is a really cheery tome. Noddy would get my vote. ! Dec 30, Karen rated it it was amazing Shelves: autobiographyholiday-readshumourkindlekindle-salesmusic-filmnon-fiction. This was just the sort of thing that I would recommend for a holiday read. Funny as hell, and Noddy isn't afraid to speak his mind on things that really matter to him. I did like the idea of making the Birmingham and Black Country dialects England's second language s and the tales of the various events that have marked his illustrious career. Dec 26, john richards rated it it was amazing. Great read I heard a promotion interview with noddy on the radio and thought I fancy reading that book. Good choice a great read from front to back. A great insight into a very interesting and down to earth man. Would recommend to all not just noddy fans.
