Book Review: Knock, Knock! Who's There?

Knock, Knock jokes become a fun way to play around with words with your children.  They are fun, silly and are a hidden way to build comprehension.

The book, Knock, Knock! Who's There? by Tad Hills is labeled "My First Book of Knock-Knock Jokes".  It is a great book to read with your children ages 3 an up.

The jokes in this book all contain names of people as part of the joke.  It will provide fun and laughter for your family and show your children there are all different type of books that you can enjoy together. 

The bonus and funny part is when your children try to create their own knock, knock jokes.  Beware, they may not make sense at first, but laugh anyway.  Over time, they will learn there are connections of meaning between the word and the answer to the joke.  This is where the comprehension lesson is hidden.
