Humorous Kids Literature
Grades K-5
"Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus" By: Mo Willems
"The End" By: Jim Benton
"No, David!" By: David Shannon
You could have your class make a T-chart of things that they are supposed to do in the classroom and things they aren't supposed to do in the classroom. This would be a great segway at the beginning of the year as to what proper classroom behavior looks like and what you expect out of your class. I think despite David's bad behavior in this book, it is very age appropriate for younger grades and would be found humorous.
"Starring Jules (As Herself) " By: Beth Ain
Jules makes lists for everything, so one thing you can do with your students at the beginning of the year or whenever you introduce this book, is to have them make a list of things they want to accomplish for the week, the month, or by the end of the school year. They could also make a list of things that they want to know or questions that they have.

"You're Only Old Once" By Dr Seuss
I would recommend the teacher reading this story first because some of the words are hard to pronounce and get through because so much of it is made up. You could have your students make their own tongue twisters then have them read each others to the class. Another lesson idea is to have them create another "test" that the man would have to go through. They can come up with their own names for a disease they're testing for or make up names for the process by which one would be tested.
