Features: A joke is a literary form, its important characteristic being to amuse. Jokes also contain a certain truth, giving them an educational significance: mocking a wrong idea, satirizing foolish behavior, refuting the hypocrisy of some people, or exposing the ugly nature of others. In short, a joke always uses satire, humor, wit, absurdity, exaggeration, and other techniques to touch upon some aspect of social life, no matter how small, and thereby warns and educates people. This is what is meant by "teaching through entertainment." This book is one of the "Children's Enlightenment Series," collecting over ninety types of jokes from the "Laughing Forest" by Han Dan Chun of Wei during the Three Kingdoms period to the "Expanded Laughing Forest" by Qing Dynasty game master, and compiling and rewriting them into jokes suitable for children to read. These jokes reflect all aspects of the spiritual life of the Chinese nation throughout history, expose various comical incidents in historical events, and mock the diverse ridiculous people in society across the ages. Children reading jokes frequently is very beneficial for increasing knowledge, opening wisdom, enhancing humor, and cultivating comprehensive qualities. We believe that children will enjoy these jokes.
