The Worm Book
This book really needs a health warning on it, 'Bad jokes can damage your health' or something. If you can listen to knock, knock jokes or elephant jokes without flinching, then this is for you. If you can't, then leave it to the seven and eight-year-olds who will love every page! Full of visual puns and comic pictures about worms in every possible and impossible guise, my class loved this and read the deadpan text in fits of laughter. The Ahlbergs have the knack of writing true multilayered text and there is something in this to amuse from the age of about six to adult level . . . as long as you are strong enough for it!
