3.0 out of 5 stars Good but I have reservations, March 3, 2003
By A Customer
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.
