Joke of the Week #40

A chicken walks into a library; he goes up to the librarian's desk. "Book."

"You'd like a book?" the librarian replies.

"Book."

The librarian hands the chicken a book, and he leaves. The next day, the chicken comes back. "Book, book."

"You'd like two books?"

"Book, book."

The librarian hands the chicken two books, and he leaves again. The next day, the chicken comes back again. "Book, book, book."

"You'd like three books?"

"Book, book, book."

The librarian hands the chicken three books, and he leaves yet again. Well, by now, the librarian's curiosity is getting the better of her, so she decides to follow the chicken and see where he goes.

She follows him down the sidewalk, through an alleyway, through a field, and down to a pond. The chicken stops by the edge of the pond, upon which, a frog swims up to him. The chicken lays the books out in front of the frog, who looks each of them over and says, "Read it, read it, read it..."
