The House with No Door: African Riddle-Poems par Brian Swann

I didn't like the story in this book but the pictures tell their own story. I didn't get the riddles and the poems didn't rhyme and I didn't understand the meaning.

At the end of the book it gives you possible answers to the riddles but I still don't understand them. I think you have to make up your own answers.
