For some children, humor is the key to hooking them into
reading. A silly book allows them to let go and laugh.
Keep in mind that humor for preschooler may not even seem so funny to you. But
appreciate it for what it offers your child. (If you get in a silly mood, you
might even have a good time . . .) Some writers for this age group can really zero in on what gets
to a preschooler, and their writing strikes the right chord.
Humor is also a good way to engage you child in a discussion about a topic or issue. If your child is dealing with a sibling or school issue, or even a falling-down or food-aversion period, laughing at a character going through something similar can put it in perspective and give your child some release.
