Read the passage.

from Stories to Tell Children
Children like to feel the joke coming in this way, they love the anticipation of a laugh, and they will begin to dimple, often, at your first
unconscious suggestion of humour. If it is lacking. they are sometimes afraid to follow their own instincts. Especially when you are facing an
audience of grown people and children together, you will find that the latter are very hesitant about initiating their own expression of
humour... Often at the funniest point you will see some small listener in an agony of endeavour to cloak the mirth which he–poor mite-
fears to be indecorous. Let him see that it is the thing* to laugh, and that everybody is going to.
(trom Stories to Ted Children by Sara Cone Bryant)
