‘A Slight Misunderstanding’ is an example of humorous narrative essay. Pick out a few humorous instances from the story.

A Slight Misunderstanding is a short humourous book written by J. B Boothroyd, a popular English writer.

The story has a few humorous instances such as when the protagonist of the story enters the wrong car because it was similar to his car but saw that it contained a woman's handbag but he somehow found the home address of the lady by reading the collar on a dog nearby that barked at him.

He eventually found out that the car was actually his own car that the woman forgot her handbag in.

The situation was funny when he was relating it to the woman's husband because the husband was used to his wife's forgetfulness and carelessness. It was also funny because the only reason the protagonist knew it was actually his car was because of the plate number.

Another humorous incident that happened was when the protagonist entered a wrong car for real when the boot of the car was opened and it was hay that was there instead of fruits, fish, and other groceries.
