Synopsis

That's Really Funny! Volume 2, a Storyteller’s Collection of His All-Time Favorite Jokes by Joe McHugh is a delightful 2-volume compilation of 78 skillfully-crafted story jokes spread across 154 pages with 24 artful illustrations that draws upon a rich tradition of narrative humor to make people laugh and drive the blues away. Avoiding simple one-liners, put-downs, puns, and “shaggy dogs” Joe McHugh’s story jokes weave together memorable characters, vivid settings, and engaging plots—each finishing with a great punch line. Whether you need the perfect gift, a companion for camping trips and airplane journeys, or a store of yarns to liven up a family gathering and or a dinner party, “That’s Really Funny!” is the ultimate collection for anyone looking for an excuse to laugh.

“Humor is the great thing—the saving thing after all. The minute it crops up all our hardnesses yield, all our irritations and resentments slip away and a sunny spirit takes their place.” ~ Mark Twain

Forty years in the making, this collection grew out of McHugh’s global travels as a professional storyteller performing at festivals, libraries, museums, and concert halls. Inside the pages, readers will encounter a man with a talking dog, two sharp horse traders, and a customer recounting a trip to Rome from a barber's chair. You will meet a woman vacationing in the Poconos who meets a mysterious man, a mother fretting over her daughter's first date, a clever antique dealer and her cat, a pair of sharp horse traders, and even a few three-legged chickens. And that is just the start.

~ Laughter is the best medicine ~
