Children love jokes, so what could be a greater encouragement to reading than a BOOK OF RIDDLES? Every turn of a page brings a hilarious answer to a delightfully silly question fro beginning readers age 5-8. 'I can read it all by myself' is the Beginner Books motto, and behind it is an understanding of how important it is for children to take pride and pleasure in their early reading. Beginner Books have been designed to appeal directly to children through the use of humour, rhyme, and bright pictures that can be 'read' even by the non-reading child. Some Beginner Books are simple stories, others are hilarious nonsense: both types have been designed to give children confidence and make them want to go on reading.
