ABOUT THIS BOOK

With men in suits
And rubber boots        
It goes to lots        
Of red-hot spots!*

Once again, J. Patrick Lewis and Debbie Tilley have joined their talents in a poetry collection with a riddle-lightful twist. Each of the 32 poems is a separate game for kids: a riddle that they must solve with the help of generous clues in the sing-song text and the bright, funny watercolor paintings. The result is an interactive, educational, and super-silly poetry collection that will tickle and tease every little riddle lover.

*Stumped? It's a fire truck!
