The Ultimate Book of Shaggy Dog...

Adam Williams

The true definition of a shaggy dog story is as follows: a long, rambling story or joke, typically one that is amusing only because it is absurdly inconsequential or pointless. A ‘Shaggy dog’ story in its purest form is a long-winded tale which eventually arrives at a sometimes ridiculous and often ‘groan-inducing’ punchline. After much research and to the best of my knowledge, these stories have never been released in audiobook form or print. Having said that, the main reason for putting together this collection of stories and jokes is in the hope of encouraging parents, particularly fathers to become storytellers to their children, although obviously, anyone can listen. As a father of three, these stories hold fond memories for me during long car journeys and keeping my sons entertained. No matter how many times they’re repeated, kids love to hear them over and over again. Some of the stories might be considered incredibly ‘cringe worthy’ but the fact is, kids, love them and will love hearing you tell them. I guarantee they will pass these stories on to their children when they too become parents. Some of these tales might not be considered ‘politically correct these days, so use your judgement in their retelling. I have included some of the best ‘Quickfire Dad jokes’ between stories and a rude section of rhymes and limericks at the end of the book. These will hopefully bring back fond memories from your childhood and time in the playground as they do for me. Have fun and enjoy spending time with your children, they grow up so quickly. To quote Superman: The son becomes the father and the father becomes the son.
