I Feel Cringe When I Hear a Pun - Hardcover

by Karen White Porter (Author)

In the heart of Friends Town, the Feeling Friend Furry Monsters are ready for a sweet Easter celebration-until they spot a roadside disaster! The Easter Bunny's car has broken down, and the holiday is in jeopardy. When the well-meaning but pun-obsessed "Easter Punny" steps in to save the day, things go from sugary to silly in record time.

Instead of fixing the engine, the Easter Punny tries to "pun-power" the car back to life. When that fails, he begins delivering groan-worthy Dad Jokes instead of chocolate eggs! Meanwhile, the real Easter Bunny is "two-tired" from pedaling a bicycle across town to finish his route. Will the monsters survive the awkwardness, or will the "Cringe" take over Friends Town?

I Feel Cringe When I Hear a Pun is a standout entry in Karen White Porter's award-winning "I Feel... When..." series. Using her trademarked Emotatudology(TM) approach, Porter introduces children to the specific, modern sensation of "cringe"-that relatable mix of embarrassment and amusement.
