Father Humor covers every aspect of the most simultaneously loathed and beloved joke form of all time: the pun. Because "Dad Jokes" should be practised by everyone (regardless of age, gender, or family status), this book serves to encourage creative thinking and punning habits for everyone!

Learn how to properly deliver a pun (whether written, visual, or verbal) and how to pretend you’re sorry for your Dad joke (even when you’re not).

Includes: quality pre-loaded puns, the taxonomy of the different types of wordplay, and famous punsters in history and on the screen.

PSA: Father Humor is family friendly, not pun-ographic.
