“Mom Jokes” Joke Book #1 On Amazon, Beats Out 99 Dad Joke Books

NEW YORK, NY – Sometimes, you just need a laugh, but the whole world is in need of a good chuckle right about now. Perhaps that’s why the first release by New York City based independent comedian, writer and musician Jessica Delfino, “Dumb Jokes For Smart Folks” has shot up to the number one Kindle spot on Amazon in the Puns and Wordplay category. It’s also holding steady at the #23 bestselling Kindle in the Jokes and Riddles category.

 

In paperback, it’s in the top 100 in Puns and Wordplay and ready to break through the top 100 at #104 in Jokes and Riddles.

 

The book, a 130 page collection of impractical puns, juvenile jokes, bonkers bits, ridiculous references, witty wordplay and silly snippets is selling for $6 (Kindle) and $13.99 (Paperback). The book’s publisher, Humorist Books, created by Weekly Humorist magazine founder, Marty Dundics, is thrilled at the book’s success. “This book is so funny,” he said in an email. “I am so excited to be able to share it with the world.”

 

The writer, @JessicaDelfino is a veteran stand-up comedian, writer and “dirty folk rock” musician who pivoted into creating more parenting-based and written humor since the birth of her son in 2016. Her many years of tenacity in the gritty NYC comedy scene earned her high ranking celebrity endorsements, including comedians Colin Quinn, Jim Gaffigan and Dave Hill, writer and comedian Sara Benincasa, Seth Myers’ head writer Alex Baze, writer and illustrator Bob Itzkoff, New Yorker Cartoonist Bob Eckstein, and more. Her satire has been featured in the New Yorker, The New York Times, McSweeney’s and other publications.
