That said, the included lens (the IS II, not the STM) is a terrible lens.
Image quality is decent enough for a kit lens, no real complaints there, but it uses a very slow and unreliable direct drive focus motor. I missed more than 50% of shots with that lens involving any sort of movement. Im not talking sports either, if someone was fidgeting or slowly walking it couldnt keep up.
Personally, I wouldn't even bother with it - if you can swing it, the EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM can be found for about $150 used and offers image stabilization and better build and image quality - it's a far superior "starter" telephoto, IMO.

Neither are going to be considered good lenses, but when starting out with DSLRs, I would value a variety of focal lengths over lens quality.
But, looking at Canon's website [canon.com], the 40D isn't listed as supported?
