MY THOUGHTS:

I received this book in exchange for my honest review.

Corny, fun and brilliant! I love this little book that introduces children to the art of telling jokes.  I should mention that my husband saw it on my desk and claimed it.

Sometimes, it’s great to read a book that reminds one of how it was to tell a joke when a child.  We laugh at the gentle simplicity of the jokes kids tell. Even if corny, just the fact that the child is so excited about saying the joke, the look of mischievous anticipation on their face while the one they’re sharing the joke with struggles to find the answer, and finally with how infectious their antics are when they finally blurt out the answer knowing they stumped another… it’s delightful!

I asked to review this and other books like it because of the memories such books return to me and the simple joy of new experiences of fun and comic relief they produce now with the younger generations in my life being introduced to joke telling for the first time.

I thank the publisher for the opportunity.
