I purchased this book because I needed riddles to include in a newsletter. There certainly are a lot of riddles in here, and the index is very helpful so you can find ones on certain topics, but many of the riddles sound old-fashioned, like they were from the 1960s or so. I assume kids are the ones using this book the most, and I can't imagine that they relate to many of these riddles. Also, many of the riddles are only lukewarm (not that witty or funny). Maybe this isn't a problem for kids. But for an adult writer or riddle collector, I'm not so sure.

I bought this book for my daughter. It is a great collection of riddles/jokes which are children friendly. A big hit with the entire family.

I was looking for a riddle book I could use with the residents at the assisted living faciliy where I work and this book really fits the bill. Although the riddles appeal to children, the seniors at our facility get a kick out of trying to solve them and they enjoy them even though they're silly. I would recommend this book for anyone who likes riddle-solving and wants to have some light-hearted fun.

This is really more of a joke book. Overall it is pretty funny but I was disappointed because I was expecting riddles (along the lines of the type that Bilbo & Gollum throw back and forth in The Hobbit).

I teach High School and whenever I have just a few minutes left in class to fill or just before I start a lesson, I'll read a couple of riddles from this book aloud to my kids to lighten up the mood. The riddles are silly and that's why even my 15 to 17 year olds enjoy both trying to guess what the answers are and laughing at some of them. They really like them. It's not really for adults but it's fun either way.

It's a good book for kids. I don't think adults will have much fun with it.

I needed this for a party and the riddles stumped quite a few intelligent people!

Laughter and annoyance followed the arrival of this terrific book. I was having so much fun with it that I was sent to my room so I didn't ask another riddle. I'll pass this on to the other "children" I know for their enjoyment too.!

There are some jokes and riddles that are memorable and really funny, and some that I have never heard any form of, but you have to dig through a couple lame ones to find them.

This book, has loads of riddles like Q:If you throw a pumpkin in the air, what will come down? A:Squash And more stuff! So buy this book now, and laugh tomorrow!
