It's an old book of animal riddles. I just don't remember it well enough to write about it on my blog.

Beatrice De Reigniers has several riddles about animals, but YOU have to guess which ones before the next page is turned. And it's nothing but fun...until the last line: "You want more riddles? Make up Your own!" Not quite compassionate, is she?
Three stars
