The Everything Kids' Joke Book: Side-Splitting, Rib-Tickling Fun

too many factoids; it is way too similar to jokelopedia. Buy the knock knock book instead.

My son is always telling jokes. I got this book for him in an effort for him to improve upon his joking skills. He has picked up on some good jokes and it is helping him understand what makes jokes funny.

I got this for my 7 year old niece who lives in another state. She loves it. in fact the next time that i saw her she told me a bunch of jokes from the book. also i think that she has room to grow with the book. it has a lot of fun activities, and it helps exercise their brains with all of the brain puzzles.

nice layout, could have used better quality paper and more color print, but all in all a good series of books, great for older kids.

One of my kids has this book and loves it. I read it and couldn't help but laughing at some of the jokes. This would make the perfect gift for a child 6-12 years old.

"Everything Kids' Joke Book" targets children 9 to 12. The first part of the book is jokes of various sorts. The second part has advice on how to tell jokes and make up jokes and be funny. My 8 year old / 2nd grade daughter loves this book and will willingly read it by herself or aloud. This is exactly what she needs to improve her reading skills, and I've found nothing else she is half as willing to read. Some of the jokes use words she doesn't know; a 12 year old would understand all of the jokes and also find the book suitable. Example jokes: "what is a kitten's favorite color? Purr-ple"; "What is a ghost's favorite color? Boo"; "If astronauts are so smart, why do they count backward?"; "What kind of dog does Dracula like? A Bloodhound." Occasionally throughout, there are cute little exercises to do, where the solution is the answer to a riddle, like a very simple cross-word puzzle. My daughter greatly enjoys filling these out. All told, this books is well worth the buying.
