MY BOOK BEGINNING
What's a Dad Joke?
A lot of people brag that their parking skills are unparalleled, but I can back it up.
-- Bad Dad Jokes: That's How Eye Roll by Bart King, art by Jack Ohman. This goofy book of eye-rolling, corny "dad jokes" came out this week, in plenty of time to get a copy for Father's Day. It is packed with every g-rated pun ever told! Along with some great illustrations by Pulitzer-winning cartoonist Jack Ohman.
If you are trapped at home with kids, get a copy. This will inspire plenty of giggles and family fun along with the eye rolling.
Please join me every Friday to share the first sentence (or so) of the book you are reading, along with your initial thoughts about the sentence, impressions of the book, or anything else the opener inspires. Please remember to include the title of the book and the author’s name.
EARLY BIRDS & SLOWPOKES: This weekly post goes up Thursday evening for those who like to get their posts up and linked early on. But feel free to add a link all week.
SOCIAL MEDIA: If you are on Twitter, Instagram, or other social media, please post using the hash tag #BookBeginnings. I try to follow all Book Beginnings participants on whatever interweb sites you are on, so please let me know if I have missed any and I will catch up. Please find me on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.
YOUR BOOK BEGINNING
TIE IN: The Friday 56 hosted by Freda's Voice is a natural tie in with this event and there is a lot of cross over, so many people combine the two. The idea is to post a teaser from page 56 of the book you are reading and share a link to your post. Find details and the Linky for your Friday 56 post on Freda’s Voice.
MY FRIDAY 56
I've learned about dogs named Beowoof, Drools Verne, Harry Paw-ter, Prince of Barkness, Pup the Magic Dragon, Doggie Houndser, Puppy Longstocking, MacArther Bark, Mary Puppins, Raise the Woof, The Puppymaster, Collieflower, Barkimaeus, Dunepuppy, Arfie Bunker, and Peter Barker.The longer you stay at home, the funnier this gets.
Not to mention Droolius Caesar.
Sounds like fun!
ReplyDeleteIt is silly fun. Enjoy tour weekend!
DeleteSure to be a hit with dads and kids! My #BookBeginnings is "Indiscretions of Archie", a bit of nonsense by P.G. Wodehouse.
