(4) K-3 Illustrated by Jeff Sinclair. Silly riddles ("Where do spies buy groceries?" "At the snooper-market") are interspersed with jokes, knock-knocks, and funny lists ("Your family might be aliens if..."). The presentation is bland and the black-and-white drawings are amateurish, but the book offers a varied assortment of humor and the subject index is helpful for those looking for jokes on particular topics.

(4) K-3 Giggle Fit series. Illustrated by Steve Harpster. Kids drawn to these books by their humorous content and color cartoon art will chuckle over the punny riddles ("Why was the broom late for school?" "It overswept"), stumble at repeating "bad black bran bread," and knock themselves out with knock-knocks. Though the quality of the humor is uneven, the presentation is kid-friendly. Each volume contains an index that will be helpful for those seeking riddles about specific topics.

(4) K-3 Giggle Fit series. Illustrated by Steve Harpster. Although these volumes serve up familiar fare ("What would you get if you crossed a clock and a chicken? An alarm cluck"), the presentation, with simple color comic art and lots of white space on each page, may be appealing for young readers. The title Nutty Jokes is something of a misnomer, though, since the book contains only riddles, not jokes. Each volume is helpfully indexed by subject. Ind.
