Title: 40 Humorous British TraditionsAuthor: Julian Worker
Genre: Nonfiction, British, Humor, Traditions, History.
Plot: If you want to learn more about other rich cultures (particularly the British culture in this case) but only have a few minutes everyday then the book 40 Humorous British Traditions is exactly what you need.
Written in short independent chunks that only take 5-10 minutes to read, this book covers some of Britain's more humorous traditions - ranging from Bog Snorkeling and Cheese Rolling to Turtle Rinsing in London and, of course, more traditional activities such as spitting and digging contests.
With a little something for everyone, this book is sure to please the historian and the humorist in your family in addition to teaching some fascinating cultural facts.
Likes/Dislikes: The British are not necessarily known for their sense of humor but this book might just change that. They definitely have some very unique traditions. This was a fun short read!
Rating: PG-13 and up, mainly for reading level.
