“Little Bumpkin is as much fun as a Big Pumpkin box of bent nails,” Rosie said. But everyone stared when Rosie’s Great Aunt Grizella drove into town. She was driving a grader. Not many graders came to Little Bumpkin. A grader towing a huge plastic pumpkin had never come to Little Bumpkin.
Author: Jill McDougall Artie Fozzle is just like my brother, who has always been a bit, er … nosey. (Nobody “nose” why). Here are his favourite nosey jokes: Q: What flowers grow right under your nose? A: Tulips. (Get it? Two lips.) Q: Why did the man wear sneakers on his face? A: Because his nose was running. Q: What did the nose yell when it wanted to be in the school play? A: “Pick me! Pick me!”
