If anyone is interested in a more in depth and humorous take on puns, I remember enjoying "The Pun Also Rises" by John Pollack - a book I randomly picked up a few years back from a Barnes and Nobles. He explored some of the history of puns and general wordplay, why English is particularly suited for puns (unlike e.g. Romanian as someone else mentioned in this thread), how puns fit into modern and past culture (both the positive and negative bits), as well as some personal anecdotes. It's a pretty quick and light read, and if you're the type of person that would actually enjoy reading a whole 150+ pages of book about puns, I'd definitely recommend it.
