Product Description

TeacherLaughs is filled with hilarious and witty anecdotes about teaching and learning from the preschool classroom to the college lecture hall. These selections from comedians and notable personalities including Milton Berle, Ellen Degeneres, and Robin Williams, as well as less well-known teachers and students, tackle subjects like forgotten homework, students who misbehave, and the dreaded parent-teacher conference.
Award-winning professional speaker and therapeutic humor expert “Mr. Jollytologist” Allen Klein has carefully selected these lighthearted quips, quotes, and anecdotes to keep teachers, parents, and students laughing through it all. This wonderful volume will help teachers maintain patience, compassion, and, most important, a sense of humor, day in and day out, through rewarding moments and less rewarding ones, from homeroom until the dismissal bell.

Tops for Teachers
The book tops my teacher gift list for any occasion. It is a collection of jokes and anecdotes sure to bring a chuckle. A very appropriate gift for that special teacher in your life. Allen Klein, the jolly-tologist, has done it again. Thanks!

TeacherLaughs: A Jollytologists Book; Quips, Quotes, and Anecdotes about the Classroom
Reading Allen Klein's collection of classroom humor is a wonderful way to start or end a day. The quips and stories cover a gamut of situations that anyone of any age could appreciate. The drawings are cute. The stories are hillarious. Even a dead person would have to give up a chuckle over these quips and quotes. Super!

TEACHER LAUGHS would make a great gift...
Allen Klein's TEACHER LAUGHS is divided up into sections that include jokes for all grades from kindergarten through college, as well as other "school" subjects, such as Sunday School, Parent-Teacher conferences, and "You Know You're a Teacher When..."
As a high school teacher myself, I was particularly amused as I read jokes that reminded me of my own students while I waited at a car dealership for my vehicle to be serviced. One particular joke struck me as very funny, and I laughed out loud. Then I laughed out loud again at the next joke, and then the next, in a sort of chain-reaction, each joke striking me as funnier than the last until I couldn't read any more because I was laughing so hard. That's when I realized that people were staring at me...the moment was priceless...the laughter precious!
Allen Klein's TEACHER LAUGHS would make a great gift for the teacher on your holiday shopping list!
