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.

Flush -Tram Dinh

I think that the humor is starting to show as I kept reading.
Where I left off is when Paine escaped from jail. Everything seems to be going fine and Donna and Paine became closer then ever. Since Paine couldn't do anything Noah and Abbey comes up with a plan to get Dusty and his goons shut down for good. Without telling there parents, they come to Shelly who is the only one that could help them. "She waved us inside and cheerfully resumed shaving her legs at the kitchen sink.The way she did it wasn't quite as glamorous as in the T.V commercials.Whenever she nicked herself, she'd cuss like a biker and wipe her blood away with her pinkie." I think the funniest character in the book would be Shelly, she is very blunt and she also has a sense of humor. There plan was to get on the ship and flush "fushia" food coloring down the toilet, so that's where Shelly had to flush,and flush often.I also thought that it was funny when Noah and Abbey was stopped by Bull and Jasper because Abbey clamped on to bulls ear with her teeth until he would let them go, they also found out that there was someone that was watching them they call him the "pirate" he protected them like a guardian angel.To find out it was their long lost grandpa that was supposedly dead. There is humor in this book, I just can't describe what kind it is.
