Synopsis

Joke-loving kids will feel as if they hit the jackpot with this comic goldmine of gags, giggles, and jests. It's filled to the brim with wacky humor, including Computer Chuckles, Animal Antics, Feeling Good, and lots more funny business. Some of the wit is downright fishy: Where does a clam go to lift weights? Mussel Beach. Who guides a ship, is green and has sharp teeth? The navi-gator. School's always good for a laugh: Teacher: Did you think band class would be all fun? Student: Yes, I only came here to play. From the Merry Media (the Kooky TV critic says: "Sci-fi shows just take up programming space) to Feeling Good, every quip is sidesplitting.

About this title

Synopsis

Joke-loving kids will feel as if they hit the jackpot with this comic goldmine of gags, giggles and jests. The book is filled to the brim with wacky humour, including Computer Chuckles, Animal Antics, Merry Media, Feeling Good and lots more funny business. Some of the wit is downright fishy: Where does a clam go to lift weights? Mussel Beach! Who guides a ship, is green and has sharp teeth? The navi-gator! School is always good for a laugh: Teacher: Did you think that music class would all be fun? Pupil: Yes, I only came here to play! 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.
