ANIMANIACS: TAKING THE ZANY FUN FROM SCREEN TO PAGE

April 29, 2025

If you’re a fan of Animaniacs, you already know the show is loud, wild, and filled with smart (and sometimes delightfully ridiculous) humor. But what you might not know is that the Warner siblings didn’t stop at the screen—they made their way into books, too.

Yep, back in the ’90s (and a bit beyond), Animaniacs books became a thing. Whether you were into silly jokes, activity pages, or quirky little stories that matched the energy of the show, there was something for everyone.

The Animaniacs book collection wasn’t huge, but it packed in a lot of variety:

Storybooks – Quick, goofy reads featuring Yakko, Wakko, and Dot on wild adventures.

Joke & Riddle Books – Filled with puns and punchlines that match the show’s humor.

Activity & Coloring Books – Mazes, word games, puzzles, and coloring fun.

Educational-ish Books – Learning disguised as laughs (yes, it’s possible).

So whether you’re a longtime fan or just discovering the madness, Animaniacs books are a fun, quirky way to relive the magic. Pick one up and let the zany begin!
