Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Kids and jokes, jokes and kids--it's a natural marriage. Now comes the mother of all joke books. Doctor jokes and elephant jokes, banana jokes, robber jokes, dentist jokes, light bulb jokes, chicken-crossing-the-road jokes, teacher jokes, computer jokes, movie star jokes, vampire jokes-they're all here, by the thousands, in a gut-busting, all-encompassing collection of more jokes than any kid could tell in a lifetime.

For the class clown and the family comedian and the shy kid who's looking to make new friends, Jokelopedia is the indispensable resource. There are the old classics and newfangled variations, and every shade of joke, pun and riddle in between, all organized by subject for easy reference. But Jokelopedia also takes it a step further. Included are tips on how to tell a joke (never laugh during the punch line); profiles of famously funny people, such as Jim Carrey, Eddie Murphy, and Lucille Ball; devilish practical jokes to hatch on friends, family, and, best of all, complete strangers; and descriptions of comedic styles and methods, including improvisation, impersonations, and slapstack.

For ages 7-12.

Synopsis:

Described as the "mother of all joke books", this essential humor resource includes 1,500 clean jokes, from old classics to newfangled variations, from puns to riddles. Included are tips on how to tell a joke, profiles on famously funny people, devilish practical jokes, and descriptions of comedic styles and methods. 2-color. Line drawings.

Synopsis:

Terrorize Your Sister (Or Your Brother. Or your Parents. Or Your Pals in the cafeteria.)

Take it away! Jokelopedia is the mother of all joke books-

An all-encompassing, gut-busting collection of jokes for any occasion. -59 elephant jokes, including Why are elephants banned from public swimming pools? They always drop their trunks. -Dozens of knock-knocks, like Knock, knock./Who's there?/Cow go./Cow go who?/No, cow go moo. -Plus teacher jokes and creature jokes, light-bulb jokes and why-did-the-chicken-cross-the road jokes. And tongue twisters: The corn on the cob made Bob the Slob's sobbing stop. -For aspiring comedians, JOKELOPEDIA takes it a step further with tips on how to tell a joke, riffs on styles, and stories of how famously funny people-from Lucille Ball (do you know who she is?) to Chris Rock-made it big.
