It's another must have for libraries and classrooms. J. Patrick Lewis has written riddle poems about 13 great children's books. On each page, two detectives (children dressed in detective clothing) are there to figure out the book in the riddle. The poems are written in ways that give clues. The illustrations help a bit with the detective work, too. They are quite cleverly done--just enough to think about but not too much information.
Can you guess this one?
It ‘s great fun figuring out the books in the riddles. It's also great fun to read and hear the wonderful writing and the careful choice of words. This book is perfect for an interactive read-aloud, especially if the illustrations are held back until after the text has been read.K-2nd Grades Beverly-teacher
