Cartoon Caption Contest Book

One of the magazine’s most popular features, the New Yorker cartoon caption contest receives thousands of entries each week from loyal readers and would-be captionistas. Now, get access to the contests, the winners, and the losers - and see how your own caption-writing attempts stack up - in The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest Book, featuring 100 cartoons from contests over the past three years. Use the suggested words under each drawing for inspiration, or think entirely outside the box and create a pithy punchline that’s all your own. Then flip the page to see the winning caption and runners-up, along with fun word trivia and interviews with contest finalists.
