Overview

You have to hand it to children. They do have a wonderfully straightforward view of the world, and a way with words that manages to make day-to-day life much more fun. In Out of the Mouths of Babes you'll find a fantastic selection of the side-splitting bloopers, hiccups, innocent misunderstandings and downright funny things that kids have come out with. For example: • Kids on love: 'If falling in love is anything like learning how to spell, I don't want to do it. It takes too long.' • Kids on music: 'Handel was half German, half Italian and half English.' • Kids on religion: 'St Paul cavorted to Christianity.' Out of the Mouths of Babes is a charming celebration of the unique, quirky - and usually entirely unintentional - humour of children everywhere, for adults who enjoy seeing the funnier side of life.
