Knock, Knock! Who's There?: My First Book of Knock Knock Jokes

Grand kids loved it.

I bought this to keep the grandson reading this summer, while having fun. Fun read.

Got this for our 4 year old daughter for Christmas. She had been trying to tell knock knock jokes and didn't quite have the pattern down (though her own versions are hilarious and we continue to encourage her to make up her own!). She immediately sat down to read this, and even though she can't actually "read" yet, the pictures support the words and she can read/remember all the words on the pages... who knew it would turn into a useful teaching tool, as well as provide all of us with many laughs! She reads it daily and tells the jokes at preschool and to relatives. The jokes are cute, understandable, and non-offensive, perfect for a 4 year old. The only very slight downsides that I can see are that the book and pictures may be a little too baby-ish for a child over 5 or so, and all of the jokes are name-based. Overall a great find, and definitely added to our daughter's already rich sense of humor!

Perfect joke book for 5-6 year olds who are just starting to read. The jokes punchline is under various “lift the flaps” inside the book. Nice pictures and colors. Only a few jokes though, wished there was more

My only complaint, though it's not any fault of the book, is that my freshly turned 4 year-old son doesn't really understand the concept of the jokes. He'll figure them out eventually. It still makes us (his parents) laugh when he tries to explain to us why it's funny, or when we say "Who's there?" and he just starts laughing, like that was the punch-line. But I love the jokes in this book, and love that it actually uses names of people, because a lot of knock-knock jokes use inanimate objects in the jokes, which never made sense to me. Really? An orange or a banana is at the door? C'mon. I know, I'm looking too much into it, right?

My 4-year-old grandson got a kick out of the one knock-knock joke I remembered, so I thought he would be ready for more. Not only did he "get" all of these sweet and/or silly ones, the book format with the "answer" under a flap is fun and may even start teaching him how to read! My favorite is "Knock-knock. Who's there? Olive. Olive who? Olive you very much." That's a grandma joke if there ever was one.

This book is super cute. I gave this as a gift and it was a big win

Shame on me for not reading the reviews first...I saw all those stars and didn't think it was necessary! Anyway, I bought this book for my 7-year old son with the hopes that it could be an ice-breaker at school, but the description should more clearly specify and warn parents that this book is intended for pre-schoolers ONLY. The book is well-made, but it has only 10 jokes and they're not the funniest I've heard either...I would only recommend this if your very young child has to present something for show & tell since, despite its limitations, it is very nicely packaged.
