Review of

Jovial Bob’s Computer Joke Book, by R. L. Stine ISBN 059033204x


Four out of five stars

 The jokes in this book are generally what you would expect in a book written for the early adolescent. They are corny and based on simple wordplay, life situations and puns. While most are based on a computer, for some, the computer is a prop and could be replaced by other objects.

 The first one in the collection is typical, “What do computers eat? A bit here, a bit there!” Humorous for the adolescent, these jokes will cause some giggles, but nothing side-splitting.
