Father, our teacher does not know what a horse is. 
- Why do you think so?
-I drew a horse yesterday and showed it to the teacher and he asked me what it was.

- What are you reading, dear?
- I don't know.
- You don't know? You were reading aloud, so you must know.
- I was reading aloud, Mummy, but I was not listening.

- Father, shall I be an ear specialist or a tooth specialist?
- Choose the teeth, my boy; everyone has 32 of them but only two ears.

- I was the only pupil today who could answer the teacher's question.
- Very nice, Pete. And what was the question?
- The teacher asked who broke the window in the classroom. 

- Ann, give me your pen, please.
- Why don't you want to write with your pen?
- Because it always makes so many mistakes.

- Nick, you must not go to Pete's house. He is a bad boy.
- Well, Mother, then I shall tell Pete to come to our house.

- Is my birthday very soon, Mummy?
- Yes, very soon.; but why do you ask?
- I only want to know if it is time to be a good little girl.

- Why it is cold today?
- It is winter now. It is always cold in winter.
- But why?
- Oh, Nick, Nick, I didn't ask my father so many questions when I was a boy.
- That is why you can't answer my questions.

- Nick, tell me which month has 28 days in it.
- They all have. 

-What is nearer to us: the moon or America?
- The moon.
- Why?
- Because I can see the moon and I cannot see America.

- Ann, if I give you two pennies and your father gives you three pennies, how much will you have?
- Seven.
- You don't understand. If I give you two pennies and your father gives you three, how much will you have?
- Seven.
- Why seven, Ann?
- I have two pennies in my pocket already.

- What is your mark in history?
- A four.
- Oh, shame on you. When I was a pupil I had a five in history.
- But history was shorter then.
