About this title

From School Library Journal:

Grade 1-3A"What should you do if your puppy chews up your riddle book? Take the words right out of his mouth!" So ends another silly collection of riddles by Hall and Eisenberg. While most are perfect for primary-grade children's sense of humor, some are more easily understood than others. Vocabulary is relatively simple and fashioned into short, uncomplicated sentences that will keep youngsters turning the pages. The colorful cartoon illustrations done in pen and ink, colored pencils, and watercolors blend well with the loony riddles. Added bonuses are the expressive puppy faces and dialogue balloons.AChristina Dorr, Calcium Primary School, NY

From Booklist:

Gr. 1^-2. Besides the puns on "blood hounds" and "hot dogs," each of these 42 riddles is illustrated with a hilarious full-color cartoon that extends the fun. There are dogs in pup tents, dogs in puppy love, dog chefs making biscuits with Collie flour, and dogs snuggled before the fire reading furry tales. New readers will laugh out loud at the wordplay and the silly scenarios. Hazel Rochman
