The Silly Book

Stoo Hample’s 1961 classic elicits a fresh round of giggles with this irresistible edition featuring new art from the author-illustrator – and the same wonderful retro feel. I am silly, You are silly, All of us are silly, Willy. And everything in THE SILLY BOOK is the silly-willy-nilliest! There are songy sills (oops!) – silly songs, silly stories, silly poems, silly secrets, silly things to do, a silly good-night, and even silly nothings. Anyone who reads this book will laugh like anything or else turn into a bathtub. First published more than forty years ago – when it became an uproariously silly success – THE SILLY BOOK has returned to cause a new generation of children to giggle like gigglecopters (giggle giggle giggle), roll on the floor (roll roll roll), and cheer, “Boodleheimer, Boodleheimer” (CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!).
