This book is punny.

This is a joke book with illustrations for young kids. They are real cute. I found this forgotten riddle book in openlibrary.

The cover page was not used in the story, seems odd to me.

Cute.

Our girls seem to be enamored with riddle books right now and we discovered that we had one on our own shelves that has just been waiting for us to read. I think I read this one to them when they were younger, but they just didn't get the puns and jokes. So today we had a good chuckle.
