Yes, it is. 'Funny in Farsi' is based on the author's real-life experiences and observations.
One funny Farsi short story could be about a mischievous little boy in a Persian bazaar. He tries to trick the merchants into giving him free treats by telling them elaborate lies, but in the end, his own cleverness backfires and he has to do small chores for them to make up for it.
There's also the story of 'Nasreddin Hodja'. Many of his tales in Farsi are full of humor and wisdom. For example, the story where he rides his donkey backwards to teach people not to be so quick to judge. These stories can make kids laugh while also making them think about different situations and how to handle them.
One interesting farsi short story is 'The Cow' by Gholamhossein Saedi. It's a story that shows the life in a rural Iranian setting and the relationship between the people and their livestock. It gives insights into the cultural and social aspects of rural Iran.

There was this pilot who was flying through some rough weather. The turbulence was so bad that his coffee spilled all over the controls. But he managed to keep his cool and joked, 'Looks like the plane is having a coffee break too!'. His light - heartedness calmed the passengers.
Sure. There was a time when my friend tried to teach his dog a new trick. He wanted the dog to roll over. So he demonstrated it himself on the floor. But instead of the dog imitating him, it just stared at him and then walked over and licked his face as if to say 'You look silly down there!'.
