1.0 out of 5 stars For kids maybe but not for "children", October 18, 2006

By	K. Carlson (Geneva, Illinois USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As a teacher of third grade I like to read some jokes to the students. The title said for kids, so I thought I would read some to my class. After a few non-laughable ones, I started reading through some and discovered that most of the jokes would be accepted well by middle school students and above. Some were very tasteless including cannibalism. Do third graders need to mull over jokes about cannibalism? I didn't read those to the students so I ended up marking the ones that were acceptable (maybe two out of five or so). Still most were not funny and needed explaining to the students. What made me surprised was that the book was offered by Scholastic Book Clubs at the 2-3 grade level. I would pass on this one unless you are over the age of 12 or so.

I bought this book for my daughter that is a silly little girl w/a great sense of humor! She'll be 8 soon and she kept looking at her father as if he were crazy while he was reading the jokes out of this book! We expected kids jokes to be corny and such, but these are just not even producing grins. The funniest part about this book was the look on my daughters face.
