Lots of Knock-Knock Jokes for Kids
by Whee Winn
What it is
More than 250 clean, family-friendly knock-knock jokes, riddles, tongue twisters and puns, with illustrations.
Why it's on the list
A joke book on a reading list may look like a cheat. I don't think it is. For a child who avoids books, short jokes are often the easiest way in: every page is finished in seconds, there is a reward at the end of each one, and the whole point is to read it aloud to someone else. This collection has more than 250 jokes, riddles and tongue twisters, all clean, so it works in the car, at dinner or in a waiting room. It has spent seven weeks in Amazon's weekly top 20 of nonfiction sales, which says a lot about how many families reach for it.
