Grade 1-4-- Those who enjoyed Snakey Riddles (1990), Fishy Riddles (1983), and Buggy Riddles (1986, all Dial) will line up for this easy reader. The riddles are sure to bring groans of enjoyment to primary-grade children and even bigger groans from adults who share them. The book is filled with clever word play and humor. The brightly colored cartoons, many of which are set against the black backdrops of outer space, are just right. The elephant in a space suit is a classic. Answers are given directly below the riddles, which unfortunately doesn't allow readers to ponder the possiblities before discovering the punch lines. Still, this is a very funny, well-illustrated collection that is attractively formatted. --Sharron McElmeel, Cedar Rapids Community Schools, IA
