What is Humor?

Humor is "what makes stuff funny" and has the "power to evoke laughter." You will be exploring humor in a novel of your choice.



It is very important that you make wise decisions in this project since this is one of two major projects before the end of the year and it will take you several weeks.



For your individual novel, you get to choose a novel that uses humor. Making a good choice of novel will make this easier for you. Choose a novel that will expand and challenge your humor. Do not choose a novel just because you think it is short; this often makes things more difficult. Do not try to get away without reading the novel. This is a novel project - you need to READ a novel.

" Libby has used the last of my sanitary towels to make hammocks for her dolls". In the book titled Angus, thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging the narrator has a journal that she writes in many times a day at different times. She has a younger sister in which her name is Libby. Libby can be very annoying and like you notices in the first sentence of my post she likes to experiment with things that aren't what they are used for. She has a very interesting looking cat which she had to beg her mother onto letting her bring home. Angus is the cat name, now Angus likes to fight with the neighbors small dog, making the neighbors better known as "Mr. and Mrs. Next Door not like Angus. though out the story so far it does not mention the narrators name. She really wants a boy friend and has many questions on how her first kiss would be. Now the char actor looks up to a teen magazine that she reads. She feel that she is very ugly and that no guy would want her. She has a what she calls "Sex God" that speaks to her which simply refers to when ever she thinks about kissing a boy or talking to a boy that she likes. This book is very interesting just because you get to read about things that a teen would write in a journal and her emotions yet humorous ways.
