5.0 out of 5 stars Delightful!, February 12, 2000

By	KATHLEEN E KAIN (COLUMBIA, SC USA) - See all my reviews

"Funny Things Kids Say" is a wonderful reminder of real life with children. It is humorous yet so true. Children will interpret words and situations in the most ridiculous ways. And "Funny Things Kids Say" is an excellent look at the brighter side of childhood. Once you start it, you won't put it down! Highly recommended for parents, teachers and others who deal daily with our fascinating children.

5.0 out of 5 stars TAKE A BREAK AND GET READY TO GIGGLE!, October 7, 1998

By A Customer

As a bonified rat in the rat race of the current modern day world - my breaks - like millions of others - are often over looked. But when I get really bogged down - The Funny Things Kids Say Vol. 3 comes off of the book shelf. Hi, my name is Jodie Lynn and I am a parenting columnist. I don't profess to be an expert - but kids are one thing I know - as does my good friend - Grace Housholder - the author of this book. Any time of any day when you feel like you are going to explode from "overscheduling," go for the gusto and open up this delightful and wonderful book. Kids really do say the funniest things and it is captured uniquely on every page. Just remember these words - TAKE A BREAK AND GET READY TO GIGGLE! :)

5.0 out of 5 stars This will keep you laughing for years., October 7, 1998

By A Customer

This book is a family-friendly, inspirational book, making it ideal for your personal, school or church library. Grace Housholder's collection of "one-liners" by kids will keep you laughing for many years.
