Kids participating in the Oxford Public Library’s Summer Reading Program tested out their comedic skills last week.
This year’s theme was “Laugh it up at the library.”
Each child took a turn in front of the microphone telling jokes.
Since everybody could use a good laugh we decided to share their jokes with readers. Enjoy!

A guy was driving in a car and he ran over a rabbit. He pulled over and started crying. A lady pulled over and asked him what was wrong. He said he ran over a rabbit and he felt bad. The lady said she knew what to do. She went back to her car. She came back with a spray bottle. She sprayed it on the rabbit. He came alive and he hopped 10 feet and waved, and another 10 feet and waved and so on. . . The guy asked what was in the bottle. The lady said to read it. He read, “Makes hair come to life with a permanent wave.”
