Joke and Riddle Jackpot

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.
