Tomfoolery was given to me at Christmas. Probably because of my name (Tom). I memorized many jokes and humorous sayings out of this book when I was ten years old that I have never forgotten. My children love hearing me tell the jokes in this book and surprised me by learning one of the rather long nonsensical stories while still very young. The book catalogues many cultural jokes and humorous stories that were told in the old days before T.V. Many of these stories are now easily found on the Internet. But if you start with this book you can find many more. In other words, it's a good starting point for anyone who just isn't able to take life too seriously! source: Goodreads
