Dogs Don't Tell Jokes is a great book! It is about this seventh grade boy named Gary W. Boone and he loves telling jokes to just about anyone which would sometimes cause him not to do his work at school. He had this friend named Angeline, she was only 10 but in high school. There was a talent show coming up and if you won you would win $100, Gary signed up for it. One day his parents asked him to make a deal that if he didn't tell jokes for 3 weeks he would get $100 from them. He agreed. After a while, Gary thought his jokes where boring so he quit the talent show. But Mrs.Stitzenberry came (his imaginary friend) and talked to him to get back in, so he did. Then he went to the talent show and everything went great! He won first place which meant he won $100! ( )

This book is about a boy that is named Gary Boon. His so called "friends" him Goon. This boy is a joker likes to make bad jokes and he laughs at everything. Even when someone hurts him emotionally or physically, he laughs to relieve the pain. At the end he enters a talent show and tells his best jokes at it with the perfect timing in pauses in between the punchline and the joke.

This book is perfect for people that want to feel bad for people. Even if the main character gets a good ending. I recommend this book to kids of all ages because: its funny, and it has a good story. Yet it is not a book that you would find in a "high class good books only" kind of Library. This book has no series.
