Kitty Riddles

(3) K-3 Illustrated by R. W. Alley. This collection brings feline wordplay to young, somewhat experienced, readers. Here youngsters can discover if kitties like to shop in stores ("No, they prefer catalogs!") and what says, "'Beow! Beow!'--A kitty with a cold!" Some of the riddles require more sophistication: "What ancient land had the happiest cats?--Purr-sia!" Still, the exaggerated illustrations help with word clues, and the whole reminds young readers that there's much fun to be had in reading beyond simple decoding.
