Reviews

K-Gr. 2. The words yucky and riddles in one title? What could make a primary schooler happier? An easy way to entice children into reading, this joke book, part of the Kids Can Read series, features one riddle to a page, accompanied by a full-size, color picture. Most of the jokes are actually funny (What is a cannibal's favorite vegetable? Human beans), and they stay true to their essential yuckiness with skunks, barf, and nose picking all getting their due. Parker's zany cartoon-style artwork finds all the humor, while managing to tread the line between funny and disgusting. Ilene Cooper
