When Riddles Come Rumbling: Poems to Ponder

32 pp. | Boyds/Wordsong | August, 2001 | Trade ISBN 1-56397-846-6 $$15.95
(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Karen Dugan. "With just one coin I / tumble out / from a round glass world / through a silver / spout." Twenty-nine playful poems describe ordinary but interesting objects, from a gumball to a snake. The riddle-poems, enjoyable to read aloud and to guess, are framed by partial illustrations of the answer and by scrambled letters that provide a further clue if needed.
