I had wanted read this last night, but was too sleepy after the other four so went bed. I read it this morning though.

This was a cute book with jokes from Little Critter. Some where cute others funny. I got some right off others had to figure out.

How do you stop a skunk from smelling? Hold it's nose

If you're late to class and you were told don't walk in you crawl.

What gives milk but has one horn? Milk truck.

What bow can you not tie? Rainbow.

Those are just four of the jokes or riddles in this book. Give it a read and you'll find even more cute ones.

Great illustrations as well. I never read this as a kid either.

Mercer Meyer cannot be ignored. His books are that cute! And his greatest creation, Little Critter, now gives us his humorous best, and his best is.... Not always up to par, but then again, he's kinda young for golf anyway. 24 pages of cute drawings of LC and his animal buds, and enough dry puns to give even punmasters like Groucho...marks! A sweet treat from LC to your "little critters"!
