Synopsis
Whatever comes up during the day, you can amuse your friends by asking a riddle about it - eating, studying for a test, going to the town centre, watching TV, or playing with a pet. Sports, animals, music: everything's an opportunity to show off how clever you are: What is the smartest insect? A spelling bee! What do astronomers sing in the bath? "When you wash upon a star"! What lullaby do you sing to a fish? Salmon-chanted evening! What subject do snakes like best at school? Hissssstory! What starts with a 'e' and only has one letter in it? Envelope! What did the Knight say to a man from Honolulu? "How are ye"! Humour really is important in the development of a child's grasp of language and logic. Genuine learning takes place during word play, and the knowledge developed during joke telling helps to reinforce similar skills acquired in the more formal context of the classroom. Latest collection off the production line at the Sterling joke factory: a whole series of humour category best-sellers for 6 - 9 and 9 - 12 year olds.
