About the author

Tom E. Moffatt writes humorous stories and jokes for kids, but if you spotted him walking around town you wouldn’t know it. To the untrained eye, he looks like a normal 40-something father of three young girls. You know … with a glittery school bag slung over his shoulder and nail polish on his fingers.

The Joke Collector’s Notebook is the perfect companion to You’re Joking (also by Tom E. Moffatt), as it is the ideal place to write all of the jokes that you collect to add to your repertoire. This is not just a blank notebook though. Tom has added some chapter headings, like ‘Delivery Tips’ and ‘Knock-knock Jokes,’ but he has also left chapter titles blank so that you can add your own. Throughout the book there are plenty of blank pages, some with jokes or challenges on them that could inspire you. The challenges encourage you to try new things, like finding a joke that your teacher might enjoy and testing it out on them. This is such a cool book that I know so many kids would love. I want to have heaps of copies that I can just give out to kids who I see enjoying jokes. Its a book that would make a great present for kids of any age (or that adult in your life who loves sharing jokes).

My 9 year old son loves this book, plenty of space to jot down his own jokes so he doesn’t forget them and keeps reading out the ones that are already written in there. It’s his second book by Tom E Moffatt he really enjoyed Mind Swapping Madness as well

I think it would be great for a dad for all those bad dad jokes
Also I got this book free from the wonderful author of this book.

A few students who are huge fans of playing pranks really enjoyed this book! I think it has inspired them to become professional jokers. As a teacher and parent, I highly recommend this book.
