Classroom Zone, The - multi-user eBook

Both teachers and students will enjoy these books. Each title contains jokes, riddles, tongue twisters, and wacky definitions. Classroom and science titles each have numerous jokes teachers can use in their lessons. Let's Go covers transportation funnies, and Let's Eat is funny and gross on the same page. Some jokes, though recycled, still make kids laugh. Each title includes suggestions for writing your own jokes and tongue twisters. Readers can even submit their own joke to the publisher's Web site, and it could be published! Amusing illustrations complement and provide visual explanation for some of the humor. These are perfect for a quick laugh, and telling to parents and friends. Recommended.

Finally, joke books with more to them than just the same old gags rehashed with new names and places (although there are some of those, too). They also teach children how to write rib-ticklers of their own. After several chapters of jokes, each one describes a specific type ("Daffynitions" in Classroom, tongue twisters in Let's Eat, riddles in Let's Go, and puns in Science) and how to write it. Readers are encouraged to brainstorm and to submit entries of their own to the publisher in hopes of having them posted on its Web site and perhaps included in a future book. Brightly colored, eye-catching cartoons complement the texts.
