Funny Books for Preschoolers

“Click, Clack, Moo: Cows That Type” is a hilarious, tongue-in-cheek story about a scrappy crew of literate cows that go on strike. 

When the cows at Farmer Brown’s farm discover a typewriter one day, they put it to good use and type a letter asking the farmer for electric blankets to keep them warm in the chilly barn. Farmer Brown isn’t impressed by their demands (or newfound typing skills). So he responds with a firm “no.” This fun book is a cute early lesson in persuasive letter writing. And the animated audio format makes it perfect for a read-aloud. 

This sequel to the New York Times best-selling book, “Dragons Love Tacos” is a great book for a rip-roaring story time!

The world is in crisis: There are NO MORE tacos left. This is a huge problem for our taco-loving dragons, so they hatch a plan to travel back in time so they can grab all the tacos and bring them back to the present. Will they succeed?

Also topping our list of funny books for preschoolers is “Duck! Rabbit!.” Your little one will get a kick out of this digital version of the New York Times best-selling board book. They’ll giggle over the classic “duck versus rabbit” visual puzzle and scratch their heads as they work out the age-old conundrum: Is it a duck or a rabbit? The snappy, funny narration makes for a super-fun read-aloud, not to mention a lively debate.

Leo is a pretty cool guy. He likes to draw, read books and do other things ordinary kids like to do. But unlike ordinary kids, Leo’s a ghost. Most people can’t see him, and his good intentions are often misunderstood by those he encounters (including the new family that moves into his house). So one day, he decides he’s been a “house ghost” long enough and sets out to see the world as a “roaming ghost.” Along the way he befriends a young girl named Jane, and the two set off on a day of imaginative fun. 

This sweet, humorous tale will show your kid the value of friendship and that it’s okay to be different (even if you’re a ghost).

This interactive version of “The Three Little Pigs” invites your kid to play a very important part in the story: The Big Bad Wolf! Page after page, they get to do the huffing and puffing, and blow the pigs’ houses down. This fractured fairy tale has a happy twist ending, though, when the wolf blows out the candles on a cake baked by the pigs.

A flock of hapless sheep drive through the country in this whirlwind of a rhyming Read-To-Me book. With whimsical text and brightly colored pencil illustrations, this book follows the sheep through a series of mishaps. Hilarity ensues when they get stuck in the mud, then the adventure culminates in a heap of a jeep. Kids will love the funny, light-hearted narrative. It even includes a fun “make your own sheep” activity at the end.

In this bestselling, hilarious twist on the age-old first-pet story, Lucy the bear finds a little boy in the woods and decides to take him home and keep him. Despite her mother’s warning that “children make terrible pets,” Lucy keeps him anyway, naming him “Squeaker.” 

Your young reader will love joining Lucy and Squeaker on their day of fun as they figure out for themselves, do children really make terrible pets?

Learning about U.S. presidents has never been so fun! In this wildly funny story, kids will lose it over the hilarious illustrations and narration. They’ll follow the famously statured head of state as he enlists everyone from the First Lady to the Secretary of Agriculture to get him out of the bath.

This New York Times bestseller is about a bad seed. A baaaaaaaaaad seed. He has a bad temper, bad manners and a bad attitude. He cuts in line, rudely stares and doesn’t listen. One day, this very bad seed has a change of heart and decides he wants to be happy. But he may have to change his attitude and behavior to make that happen. 

Reminiscent of the classic, “How the Grinch Stole Christmas,” this funny yet touching tale shows kids that positive change is possible through will, acceptance and embracing the right frame of mind.
