Every child wants to be a "comeback kid" - and that cherished goal is within reach with these hundreds of smart-alec answers to the stupid questions youngsters get asked at home, in school or form friends. Try some School Foolery to answer questions like "Why did you miss the school bus?": "Someone moved the bus stop to a new time zone!" Make some Snappy Snippy Replies to "Are those peppers too hot?": "Compared to the sun, no. Which end is the smoke supposed to come out of?" Tired of "Where are your manners"? Answer "Manners? I thought you said banan-ners. Are you trying to make a monkey out of me?" Bust a bully, annoy your brother or sister, become a master wordsmith and master comic with these snappy comebacks for all occasions. Humour really is important in the development of a child's grasp of language and logic. Genuine learning takes place during word play, and the knowledge developed during joke telling helps to reinforce similar skills acquired in the more formal context of the classroom.
