I totally forgot to add this pic to my Wizard of Oz post yesterday...
Becks is reading one of *the best* Wizard of Oz adaptations with pop-ups by Robert Sabuda. This illustrations and pop-ups are so intricate and incredible! The original story is still told by L. Frank Baum, but this book just takes it too a whole other level. Your kids will love it!
Anyway, back to my ROFL! LOL! title.
I am doing a little research on funny read-alouds. And, I'm talking hilarious-make-them-laugh-out-loud books. Books that both boys and girls will enjoy. Becks and I have happened upon several, and I've pulled out a few from my classroom library.
Here's what make us ROFL...
Walter the Farting Dog is hilarious. Probably because it says fart and rectal flatulence like no big deal. I will be completely honest here and say that the first time I read it - before Becks was even born - I was crying I was laughing so hard. Here's an excerpt...
Walter wanted to stop [the burglars] but he was having unbearable gas pains. He rolled on his back, and waved his paws in the air. He gnashed his teeth...That's when Walter let it fly. It was the worst fart of his life.
I apologize now if we don't share the same humor :P
I adore ALL books by Jan Thomas, but Can YOU Make a Scary Face? definitely gets giggles. I tested it out on some kindergarteners the other day, and I had to remind them to turn down their giggles a bit.
Once Upon a Royal Superbaby is pretty funny, too. It tells a shared story between a boy and girl classmate and how they tell the same story differently. {PS. This is a great book for your reluctant male readers!} It also ends with a stinky diaper - Becks' favorite part.
Mo Willems has some super stories, but Becks and I have been cracking up over Elephant and Piggie lately. Such a funny duo! The stories are so simple and there is a lot of repetition and sight words. A perfect funny choice for your K-1 babies.
So, back to my research question for y'all: what are some tried and true funny read-alouds that you and/or your kiddos adore?
