Books That Made Me Giggle

​Friends,

Some children’s books make you giggle - even if you’re an adult! Here are some that tickled my funny bone.

​Diary Of A Worm, Doreen Cronin - this book is written from the perspective of a young worm.

Cronin has also written Diary Of A Spider and Diary Of A Fly. 3-7 years

Arnie the Donut, by Laurie Keller. Arnie is a donut with sprinkles who wants to be chosen at the bakery. Apparently he doesn’t know what that means. This story is full of giggles. 4-8 years.

​The Sour Grape, by Jory John - A sweet grape turns sour and holds grudges until he realizes he’s missing out on some important things. Jory John has also written The Bad Seed, The Good Egg, and The Big Cheese. 5-8 years.

​I’m My Own Dog , by David Ezra Stein - this is a humorous take on role-reversal between human and dog, narrated by the dog. Ages 4-8.
