Penn Jillette
I read Penn Jillette’s book "Presto!: How I Made Over 100 Pounds Disappear and Other Magical Tales" a few years about and it still brings a smile to my face. Penn basically went WFPB, saved his life but still manages to make fun of vegans endlessly (however, he is in that camp now:)! I have a long list of books that I recommend to people about the WFPB lifestyle, primarily written by doctors, but I do recommend Penn’s book because it will make you laugh and it will amaze you that someone could change their life so deeply by making lifestyle changes. So why should you read it?
