Dry off Book 2

By Jackson Lanehart

Overview
The cover of the Dry Off 2 is exemplifying the truest sense of dryness. The figure is crawling across the desert, reaching out to get to the oasis and alleviate his thirst. The jokes in the book are just that dry. Obviously they are in the sense of their humor. Read the Dry Off Book 2: The Dynamically Dumb Duo Edition Twice as Dry. It is for all ages, especially those who are 7 17 or wish they still were!

Acknowledgements

I want to acknowledge the wonderful work of Summer Robertson Morris for designing the stunning cover of this book. She has made it extraordinarily appealing by accentuating the desert setting with the figurine reaching for the oasis. This gives the reader that feeling of dryness that enhances the humor of the jokes.

Also, I want to acknowledge one of my former students, Michael Barata, who originated the characters above, which illustrate the knock, knock jokes. He drew this cartoon caricature of me about 25 years ago, and I saved it for just this reason. Summer Robertson Morris enhanced the caricature and the end result is magnificent. One character represents me in a natural state beginning the knock, knock joke, and the other answering the joke, represents me with a curly wig someone gave me as a gag gift many years ago. These caricatures imitate the idea of First Guy and Second Guy from The Dryoff Book 1.

Thanks to both of you, Summer and Michael, for your extraordinary artistically enhanced talents!!
