Number One Is Walking: My Life in the Movies and Other Diversions is Steve Martin's second memoir, which gives readers an inside look at his career in the entertainment industry. The book is divided into two parts. The first part is a chronology of his start and journey through his career, while the second part is filled with humorous cartoons nicely drawn by Harry Bliss. The quality of the text is great, but the amount of text is less than desirable. The quality of the text is accentuated by the disappointment that there is so little of it. Despite this, the book is a quick and entertaining read that fills readers with laughter. The artwork is fantastic, and Bliss' comic style perfectly captures Martin's anecdotes. The conversational tone made some readers feel like they were in the room. Martin's unique outlook is present throughout the book, making it a lighthearted read. In conclusion, Number One Is Walking: My Life in the Movies and Other Diversions is a great read for Steve Martin fans and those interested in the entertainment industry. However, it falls short in providing enough text for readers to read.
