Great jokes not only make us laugh--they make us think. They very often contain important pieces of wisdom and insight that we are more willing to hear when they're delivered with a laugh. Life Is a Joke: 100 Life Lessons (with Punch Lines) includes 100 hilarious jokes along with the messages that you may or may not realize they carry.
The wit and wisdom of jokes. In that order. Did you hear the one about the man who was convinced he was dead? It’s a classic, and like the 99 other joke in this book, you’ll delight in the reading and even more in the telling. There’s also the one about Einstein and his chauffeur. The woman who went on vacation and left her pet cat with her sister. The farmer with the three-legged pig. But when the laughter settles, something else happens. In the masterful hands of the Javna brothers, each joke reveals insights into human behavior—and tips for putting that insight into action—that you’ll want to share as readily as the jokes themselves.
