Master storyteller Joe McHugh knows that the best jokes are the ones that tell a story.
That's Really Funny! Volume 2 is a delightful collection of 78 skillfully-crafted story jokes that draw upon a rich tradition of narrative comedy to lift your spirits and drive the blues away. Skip the cheap one-liners, put-downs, and predictable puns. These are miniature tales complete with memorable characters, vivid settings, and engaging plots. Inside this 154-page illustrated edition, you'll meet a customer recounting a trip to Rome from a barber's chair, a mother fretting over her daughter's first date, an clever antique dealer and her cat, a pair of sharp horse traders, and even a few three-legged chickens. Complete with 24 artful illustrations, this volume is the perfect companion for anyone who loves a hearty, well-told story guaranteed to make you laugh.
That's Really Funny! was forty years in the making as storyteller Joe McHugh traveled the world performing at festivals, libraries, museums, and concert halls, picking up a funny story joke here and another there. The collection is tailored for use for a wide-range of occasions: gifts, camping trips, family get-togethers, airplane journeys, a dinner party, before bed, to cheer up a friend, or perhaps just to while away a rainy afternoon. It's the perfect book for anyone looking for an excuse to laugh.
