REVIEWS for WHAT IS FUNNY?
What is Funny? is aimed at young children. Since I’m a comedy writer, that means me. It’s the perfect book to explain to kids why humor can heal and help, and why it should not be used to hurt and harm. In a world where laughter may be the one common link that binds us all, it is a valuable and fun teaching tool.

Guides us on a light–hearted exploration into the complex question of what is truly funny and provides a simple yet insightful journey into the everyday humorous experiences of children. Boritzer captures the
meaning of compassionate humor while also sensitizing us to the feelings of hurtful humor.
