Customer Reviews

Perfect for young comedians

An ideal intro to comedy! "Olive you so much!" "Luke out below!" "Sid down; you are rocking the boat!" "Anita bath...I'll help!" "Ken you hear me?" "Les get outta here!" "Dwayne the bathtub, please...okey dokey!" "Liz-en to my song...la, la, la!" "Wayne Wayne go away, come again another day!"

Sustained Laughter

We thought this would be a cute book for our soon-to-be five year old grandson. We were in for a treat. This was his first introduction to knock-knocks, and he began laughing harder and harder at each as he discovered the joke. "She was supposed to say 'I need a" but she said "Anita" (Bath, that is!) He giggled and roared, becoming almost breathless with laughter at each new knock-knock. Ten aren't a lot, but they certainly tired him out. What a delight to see! I'd like to see the author write some follow-up books. We've looked at other knock-knock books in the stores, but most of them have many jokes that presume a vocabulary or a cultural literacy beyond that of a five year old. This collection hit exactly the right keys.

GREAT LITTLE BOOK OF KNOCK KNOCKS

I've been looking for a simple knock-knock joke book for my 4 and 5 year old nephews for months now...thank goodness this book came along! It only has a handful of jokes (10?)...but they all make sense and they're easy for the kids to remember too. The book has a neat setup. One page asks the question, then the facing page has a flap where you flip it over to reveal the punchline. Very cute. Much better than any of the "greatest" knock knock joke books I've seen. It's a good intro book, but I'd guess that older kids might not be too impressed with it since it is a very simple book. Perfect for my 4 and 5 year old nephews though.

Excellent-EXCELLENT! First Reader

This very cute book had my three-year old reading it TO ME within 20 minutes. He loved it. We both did. The illustrations are adorable and the thick pages will withstand all that a toddler has to muster. I'm SO happy that I bought this book.

My First Book of Knock knock jokes

These knock knock jokes are humorous and not easily guessed because they rely on word play. Example: Knock knock. Who's there? Olive. Olive who? Olive you. (I love you). The book's format is sturdy and fun, too--one opens a flap to reveal the answer. Great as a relaxing filler or quick read.

This is a Great Book!

My kids LOVE this book! My daughter, age 5, recites the jokes daily; they are simple enough for my three-year-old to understand too, but not too immature, nor too sophisticated. The illustrations are whimsical, fun and colorful and the lift-out flaps make it even more interactive. The book encourages them to come up with their own knock-knock jokes. I highly recommend this book! It makes a great gift too.
