What do you call an empty hot dog?
A hollow weenie.
From best-selling language writer and International Punster of the Year Richard Lederer comes this hilarious book about our spookiest holiday. On October 31, we carve faces on pumpkins, put on scary costumes, go out trick-or-treating, and devour mouth-watering, calorie-laden goodies, which always go to waist.
A ghost and a witch with a broom
And a ghoul and a bat in a room
Stayed up very late
So that they could debate
About who should be frightened of whom!
A gallery of Jim0 McLean’s sprightly drawings adds to the rollicking fun of A Treasury of Halloween Humor.
This is the perfect book for mummies, deadies, and children, and yourself — everyone who enjoys Halloween humor!
Dr. Lederer has written more than 60 books about language, history, and humor.
Welcome to the website woven for wordaholics, logolepts, and verbivores. Carnivores eat meat; herbivores eat plants and vegetables; verbivores devour words. If you are heels over head (as well as head over heels) in love with words, tarry here a while to graze or, perhaps, feast on the English language. Ours is the only language in which you drive in a parkway and park in a driveway and your nose can run and your feet can smell.
