Eh. A few were clever riddles. Some I didn't think so. And often the illustrations--though interesting to look at (and even a bit bizarre)--gave away the answer before I'd even gotten through the riddle. I guess a good book to give someone interested in riddles, or wanting to know more about riddles.

Very clever riddles. Brought to us by the same guy who wrote Please Bury Me In The Library, one of my personal favorites.

After the heavy traffic of rain
The sun gives the green light
To a truck of colors making
a U-turn in the sky.

What am I?

*Poetry* This book is very funny! It is inventive with the different riddles it gives, but easy enough for a child to understand. The pictures also include the answer if you don't understand the riddle. I would totally use this in a classroom setting.

This was a fun book full of interesting riddle style poems. I think this would just be fun to have in the classroom for the kids to read to each other.

Another fun book from the library that my gc loved. It contains poetry in the form of riddles and the kids had a ball trying to sove each riddle.
