I checked this out from the library for my 3-year-old son, and now knock-knock jokes are our new favorite pasttime. These are really simple jokes that can be easily taught to young children. And they're in alphabetical order, which makes it easy to find a favorite joke. The illustrations are simple, clever, and just perfect for a preschooler. My son now wants Santa to bring him this book so he can have his "very own copy." Excellent!

My 4yo really likes knock-knock jokes, so for christmas I got her this book. I think it's great. There are alot of jokes and they are listed in alphabetical order. It's a little more sophisticated than other joke books for the 4yo age set, but not as intimidating as the books written for older kids. Bright silly pictures are on each page, and the punch lines are in bold for easy reading. This one is a keeper for my silly little ham.

This is a great book guaranteed to elicit some giggles. My four-year old loves knock knock jokes and this book has a bunch of funny ones. However, my daughter still doesn't get the concept of "telling" the joke-- although she gets the ones she hears. I made the mistake of telling her the one that goes like this: Knock, knock. Who's there? Banana. Banana who? Knock knock. Then you repeat that and finally, after three or so repeats, you say, "Orange" Orange who? Orange you glad I didn't say banana?

Anyways, all her knock knock jokes are variations of that specific joke-- aren't you glad I didn't say branch? Basket? Tables and chairs?

The thing is, it's so funny, I laugh anyways-- her rhythm is good, her pacing is good. . . it's the joke itself that wouldn't make it into this book or any other knock knock joke book.

Here she is (resolution is really bad-- it's from my phone)-- this was our fourth try, by the way.

Great gift for my grandchildren. Silly stuff is what they love!

My young grandson will probably like these jokes, however, I would have preferred them to be random jokes not alphabetical names. I hope he "gets" the jokes.
