The Funniest Thing I Ever Did See

By Joe Bacal and Malcolm Whyte

What's the .....iest thing you ever did .....?

The pages of The Funniest Thing I Ever Did See burst with silly, surprising adventures of monsters, dragons, dinosaurs, wild animals and friendly pets - everything a youngster could wish for.

Deceptively simple verses deliver basic concepts of observation, invention, manners, kindness, fear, and friendship, among others. This rhyming wordplay introduces principle of adjective-comparative-superlative grammar, while the two-page exercise at the end of the book invites the reader to write his/her own experiences - real or imagined - and discuss them.

Black and white cartoon drawings present an additional creative activity by being suitable for coloring-in as they reinforce retention of the verbal message. The Funniest Thing I Ever Did See fosters the joy of reading and writing.

Joe Bacal is Co-founder of SunBow Productions; head writer of the Peabody Award-winning TV series The Great Space Coaster; and co-author, How to Become A Legend In Your Own Lifetime - A New Concept in Self-Help; published poet.

Malcolm Whyte: Founder of the Cartoon Art Museum in San Francisco; president of Word Play Publications; co-author, The Original Old Radio Game; and author, Great Comic Cats and The Underground Comix Family Album.
