Dogs Don't tell jokes

Here is a review of Dogs Don't Tell Jokes by Louis Sachar, one of my favorite authors.

         I like a lot of kinds of books but I usually don’t love light, funny books like I loved DOGS DON’T TELL JOKES by Louis Sachar.  The main character, 12-year-old Gary Boone is funny.  At least he thinks so.  He decides that if he tells jokes in the talent show, people will realize that he does have a talent.  But things aren’t easy.  Gary has his share of frustration, teasing, and school trouble.  Maybe he should quit...

            This book was hilarious, like most writing by Louis Sachar. It teaches to follow your dreams no matter what.  I would recommend it to fans of Andrew Clements.  It’s a well written book with realistic problems that kids will gobble up.
