Shortest books written by characters

So I stole this idea from a Godfather forum, but I think it's really funny when it gets going. Basically create titles of books that would be extremely short (out of irony) written by a character. For example:

Life with My Parents by Harry Potter
101 Ways To Effectively Kill Albus Dumbledore by Draco Malfoy
Boxing for Dummies by Dudley Dursley
Killing Potter: A Success Story by Lord Voldemort

it's kind of fun to think them up

'Sirius Black is sexy, right?' Of course she was right. The best-looking, most rebellious, most dangerous of the four marauders.
