Bring On the Laughter With These Funny Stories for 11 Year Olds

There is real truth in the old saying, “Laughter is the best medicine”! These comedy books are great for 11-year-olds who just need to decompress. They also make fantastic family read alouds.

Gordon Korman’s Books

Gordon Korman just gets middle schoolers. After all, he published his first book AS a middle schooler. Not all of his books are funny, but many are, particularly for 11 year olds. The Unteachables is my kids’ personal favorite.

The Way Things Work Now

Who knew engineering could be so entertaining? The Way Things Work Now uses wooly mammoths to bring in the humor. Kids love the illustrations, and they will learn as they read.

Wayside School

Wayside School makes regular schools look so… normal! This book is full of Louis Sachar’s trademark wacky (and somewhat dark) humor.

Horrible Histories

Let’s face it. Most of what makes it into the history books is genuinely horrible. Kids know it, and I think that’s a big piece of why the unapologetic Horrible Histories series is so popular.

Life of Fred

""” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener sponsored nofollow”>Life of Fred books combine humor and math in ways you never thought possible. Kids love the stories, and I think they learn a little math along the way even when they don’t solve the problems.
