The Family Joke Book (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780865342941)

This thoughtful collection of humorous and wholesome stories and jokes comes from the author's family experiences, including stories told by and to grandparents and grandchildren. Loosely divided into four broad age groups, the book is one way to get the family talking and provides a vehicle for easy conversation and respectful interchange between children and other children; parents and children; and grandparents and their grandchildren. The stories also provide instructive challenges to the maturity of any young person's understanding of humor. Much of this humor is based on stories told and heard from young people visiting the home of the author's own children. * * * * * * Brad Taylor, a retired banker and storyteller, was born in Wisconsin and has lived in New York, Latin America, San Francisco and Asia.

His work has appeared in "The New Yorker," "The New York Times," "Baron's," "The National Review," "The Village Voice" and many others.
