Customer Reviews

Laughter Really Is The Best Medicine

Some days you really need a good laugh. Laughter, The Best Medicine is just the ticket. Brought to you from Reader's Digest , this book is great for anyone who appreciates a good joke or anecdote. One of things I love best about this book is that anyone of any age can enjoy it. If it were a movie, I'd rate it PG-13.

Laughter - Good Meds : )

The book was in good shape and got to my home in a reasonable amount of time.

Very Funny and Clean Jokes

I have been looking for jokes for a while to release some of my stress. I think I got it. We all know that not all jokes are funny. But this book provides a lot of well selected jokes which in my opinion is clean and funny. I can't help laughing as I go through it in my spare time, after dinner, after kids go to sleep, mom is away... highly recommend.

Readers Digest jokes and cartoons without Readers Digest.

If you buy the Readers Digest just for the jokes and cartoons then you dont need to anymore.The jokes and cartoons are all here compiled into 1 book. Good value,good quality and a great laugh and makes an ideal gift.What more could you want?.

I Enjoyed Reading This Book!

Laughter, The Best Medicine: Reader's Digest is a good book that is unfortunately out of print but I found it in a used book shop and I enjoyed reading it. It is a humor book made by the folks that published The Reader's Digest Magazine and is pretty amusing and I highly recommend it! I was thinking of bringing this back to the used book shop to trade for another book but I decided to keep it because I enjoy the humor and this is a good book to reread when you just want something light to read and don't want to start a huge novel!

A Laugh on Every Page

As a nervous flyer, I thought a joke book might be a calming distraction for the plane ride. While it was far from a panacea, it probably assuaged my trepidation by keeping me occupied. And even with my feet planted firmly on terra firma, the book is good for several guffaws. For decades "Reader's Digest" has been nearly as beloved for its humorous anecdotes as its engaging stories. This compilation of tidbits from its long-running feature provides a great deal of wholesome laughter. As with the magazines other amusing columns, the vignettes provide abundant laughs without resorting to raffishness or ribaldry. Could that at least part of the reason why the magazine has maintained its longstanding popularity?
