Holiday Ha-Ha's: Valentine's Day Jokes & Riddles

Craig Yoe. Price Stern Sloan, $4.99 (128pp) ISBN 978-0-8431-0482-0

The fourth Holiday Ha-Ha's title, Valentine's Day Jokes and Riddles by Craig Yoe, is exhaustive, with pages of material on love, marriage, heartbreak and the holiday itself. Many of the jokes and one-liners are a bit of a stretch (""Why is Valentine's Day so great? It's in Fab-ruary!""), but may still appeal to youthful senses of humor.
