My son is always telling me jokes and he loves reading them to all the family in our Sunday meetings, so I thought this would be perfect for him as it gave him confidence to practice his reading skills as well as entertain a crowd! The vocabulary throughout this book is very appropriate and basic. I also liked that there are various categories so as not to get bored.
I dare to say that the book is really interesting even for adults, I felt more than absorbed when I read it and I must admit that some of the jokes are pretty funny!
It contains 144 pages that are well organized and they are simple enough to the understanding of our little children.
