Book Description
The Indian armed forces have a great sense of humour, as awe-inspiring as its fighting prowess — remarkably incisive and direct (like the famed Bofors), succinct and biting, but for reasons unknown (and perhaps ‘classified’), they prefer to shoot with their weapons, rather than with their writing instruments. 'It surely has come as a pleasant surprise that one of us has put together numerous jokes on service personnel itself. It is said that a person who can laugh on oneself is a gifted individual and a person who cannot laugh/smile is cursed.' — Air Chief Marshall S K Sareen, PVSM, AVSM, VM(G), Former Chief of the Air Staff, Indian Air Force

Pages : 186
Book Description
When life is funny, make some jokes about it. Billy Plimpton has a big dream: to become a famous comedian when he grows up. He already knows a lot of jokes, but thinks he has one big problem standing in his way: his stutter. At first, Billy thinks the best way to deal with this is to . . . never say a word. That way, the kids in his new school won’t hear him stammer. But soon he finds out this is NOT the best way to deal with things. (For one thing, it’s very hard to tell a joke without getting a word out.) As Billy makes his way toward the spotlight, a lot of funny things (and some less funny things) happen to him. In the end, the whole school will know -- If you think you can hold Billy Plimpton back, be warned: The joke will soon be on you!
