The joke is kinda lame. The writer doesn’t know what skim reading means. This is the opposite of skimming. You have to take twice as long time to try and read that!
For a couple of years my mom’s parents gave me “Highlights for Children” as a birthday present. It had a regular typewriter art section. It was the ‘50s when there were a lot fewer car chases and explosions in kids’ entertainment. Monsters were only in movie theaters.

It’s impressive how Aunt Fritzi wrote that with the paper in portrait orientation.

And the actual skimming: “Nancy, eat this cake.”
