Pint-Sized Punch Lines

* Why didn’t the skeleton cross the road? Because he didn’t have the guts for it. (Max Schram, 6, Agoura Hills, Willow Elementary)

* The teacher says to Johnny: “If I had nine apples and 12 children, how would I divide them equally?” Johnny answers: “Make applesauce.” (Sophia Eve Schwartz, 8, Encino, Sherman Oaks Elementary)

* A daughter asks her mom three questions: “How old are you? How much do you weigh? And why did Daddy divorce you?” Each time, the mom answers: “Honey, that’s not important.” So the next day, the daughter tells her friend what happened. The friend says, “Just look at your mom’s driver’s license.” So the daughter finds the license, then goes to her mother and says: “Mom, you weigh 135 pounds, you’re 45 years old and Daddy divorced you because you got an F in sex.” (Katie Melvin, 11, Studio City, Laurel Hall School)
