That Reminds Me: A Collection of Tales Worth Telling

A lively assortment of short tales, this volume gathers the wittiest anecdotes once featured in Philadelphia’s newspapers.

Readers will find the humor rooted in the quirks of ordinary life, offering a snapshot of early‑20th‑century American character with a dash of universal appeal.

The collection invites you to dip in at any point—no index needed—as each story stands on its own, rewarding both quick skims and longer listening sessions. While some jokes land in a hearty laugh, others hide a subtle moral, reminding us that levity can be a doorway to insight. It’s a charming companion for anyone who enjoys humor that springs from real people and the simple moments that shape them.
