Description
Everybody laughs. Some people laugh all of the time. Others laugh some of the time. And some people say they never laugh (though I bet they do when nobody is looking). When do you laugh?
The Laughing Book is a joyful story celebrating how wonderful it feels to laugh! Some people cackle or chortle, hoot, howl or roar... or giggle and guffaw! This book highlights how laughter is the best medicine and can bring us all together, and cheer us up when we're feeling sad. Brought to life with energetic, vibrant and bold illustrations from New York Times bestselling illustrator Daniel Wiseman.
Laughter is contagious, and this positive, stupendously silly picture book is perfect for spreading happiness... once you start laughing you won't be able to stop. What makes you laugh?
