A famous one in Chinese is The Lion-Eating Poet in a Stone Den, which has all characters sounding out as "shi": http://www.fa-kuan.muc.de/SHISHI.RXML http://www.fa-kuan.muc.de/SHISHI.RXML This is somewhat cheating since not all the "shi" are in the same tone. In general, homophonic sentences are easier to write in Chinese because (1) it's a monophonic language, so the set of possible syllables is small and (2) Chinese grammar is flexible, and words can be liberally rearranged in a sentence and still read fine.
