Day 5.330: Just one thing

Here's a piece of work that came home from school today.

E5N1 was asked, "If you could only take one thing with you [on your journey to America on the Mayflower], what would it be?"

His choice? "My joke book." Essentials only!

In the picture he is telling this joke: How to monsters like their eggs? The answer is in the comments. You can thank me there.

The other person in the picture is laughing heartily.  Either that or he's just worked out how to throw the book or possibly the book's owner overboard to stop the seemingly-endless barrage of terrible jokes.
