Beginner Books series.
Illustrated by
Debbie Palen.
Originally published in two volumes--Bennett Cerf's Book of Riddles (1960) and More Riddles (1961)--this collection contains classic riddles ("What is the best thing to put in a pie?") with the responses ("Your teeth") printed upside-down just beneath each question. Simple vocabulary and comic illustrations make this a good introduction for young comedians in search of material.
