Whilst looking through a list of titles available to read - and review - on the NetGalley website a few weeks ago, I immediately stopped at the National Geographic Kids Christmas Joke Book.
'Perfect,' I thought.
Every Christmas, for the past few years, I have found myself taking out a Christmas joke book and sharing the jokes with friends. The amount of groans they have generated have been countless. Seeing the National Geographic book available to review meant one thing: more ammunition for Christmastime.
The book is filled with tons of jokes. Many I am sure will get the desired 'groan' reaction when I share them in the build up to the big day.
But, that's not all.
The people at the National Geographic have included a plethora of facts within the pages. I thought these were a bonus because I managed to learn some things I didn't know about before. Like, for example, there are 300 Million mince pies eaten every Christmastime.
So, yes, I will absolutely enjoy opening this book back up in a little under six months from bow even though I am far older than the target age of seven years or above.
The National Geographic Christmas Joke Book would make for a perfect holiday gift. However, I feel it would best be given as something to hand over in the build up to Christmas rather than on the day. Gifting it early will allow children to seek out the best (or worst!) Christmas jokes to execute during family gatherings. They'll also be able to gather up the facts that are scattered across the book's pages.
This title is set to be published on Thursday September 12 2024 on Amazon.co.uk.
Thanks to Collins and NetGalley for the advance copy.
