Children's Letters to God Tekijä: Stuart Hample
Also, very entertaining for Adults.
A sampling of Fred Allen's writings from various sources. if you have his letters and autobiographical books, you don't really need this, but it's a good one-stop source for selections from his scripts, prefaces, and such. I think his legacy would have been better served by omitting the brief one-line notes he jotted down for use in some future script or essay.

This book gives some examples of bad manners with funny names to draw the kids in. The book doesn't have a plot its just a list. One on one confrontation.

This is the type of book you read to kids when it's been a real hard academic day or a during standardized testing week. The Silly Book will definitely get the kids laughing and making funny little jokes about it. I really got into character with this book and began singing the words out loud!
