Description

A collection of "side-splitting" jokes collected from dads around the world, all of whom think they are hilarious Why did the banana go to the doctors? Because he wasn't peeling very well! Proving the age-old maxim that "it's in the way that you tell them," dads have always been renowned for being truly godawful joke tellers. Whether it's telling them at the wrong moment, misremembering the punchline, or it just simply being a terrible joke to begin with, dads are an embarrassment to the whole family when it comes to trying to be funny. This collection is full to the brim with jokes that only dad would dare tell—jokes that will make you groan, sigh, and then probably groan again. Dads take great pleasure in these kinds of jokes and some of them are so terrible they blossom into actual ribticklers—but don't tell your dad that, it will only encourage him. Read more

My husband, the KING of corny jokes, loves this book. It's British so some of the humor doesn't translate well but tons of zingers nonetheless.

  • Ever buy something you regret?
Well now is your chance! Be ready to hear all the dad jokes you didn't know you needed to hear! Don't worry, some are absolutely hilarious, just having a dad well stocked is a mistake sometimes lol One major con though is that a good portion of the book are skits/mini stories that will potentially make no sense to your kiddos, or your wife, but the dad in your life will gain a small arsenal of new dad jokes to pull out randomly. ... show more

  • HAHA - great gift for Dads (with a since of humor, or those looking for some humor)
Cute book, nice binding. Great for dads with kids of any age. Fun gift (that isn't inappropriate) at a good price. The cover is the most decorated part of the book; mostly text. Smaller than a half-size book, but bigger than a pocket-size book.

I got this for my dad for Father's Day, and he loved it! He didn't stop telling dad jokes the rest of the day (I may have created a monster...)

  • Dad approved!
Hilarious! I bought this for a Christmas present for my father in law. I ended up not giving it to him because I thought he wouldn't like it. I put it in the bathroom and when he came over, he kept coming out of the bathroom smiling to tell us a new joke from the book!!!! He loves it!
