Many a tome has been crammed with both good and bad jokes for kids, but this hardcover rendition appears to be the first of its ilk: looks like a picture book, reads like a joke book, and is for the very young.
Bronwen Davies' truly gorgeous, bright and thoroughly entertaining illustrations provide a quality backdrop to some good oldies but goodies -
What time is it when an elephant sits on your fence?
Time to get a new fence.
Why did the chicken cross the road?
To get to the other side.
Why did the crocodile cross the road?
It was following the chicken.
- making a great stocking stuffer at Christmas time, or birthday gift for the kid who has everything. Cute.

Even though my kids are much older than the target audience for this book, they loved it and our house has resounded with the telling of cheesy jokes since the book was discovered.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great first joke book for young children and would make a great gift for preschoolers.
