10 Kids’ Books That Will Make You Laugh


I loved putting together this list! I already knew some of these books. But then I went to the library to find some more. Very fun research!
.
Many of these books are picture books. Even if you think you are too old for picture books, give them a try. Their humor is NOT just for little kids. They made me laugh out loud. I found all of these books in the library.
.
I have definite favorites. Tell me yours in the COMMENT section. I’ll tell my favorites if you tell yours!
