Storytelling – Noodles, Nitwits, and Numskulls

Finally got this book from the library. I had it when I was a kid, nad I think I got rid of it five or six years ago, before my interest in storytelling really took off. It’s a collection of short stories, riddles, jokes, and anecdotes about the fool. There’s a bit in the middle about the Wise Men of Gotham, a bunch of fools from 13th century England. There’s also a bibliography and a notes section in the back I found interesting now. I don’t think I ever paid it any attention when I was a kid, but now I’m fascinated by that section.
