This book is a collection of folktales, in which Shannon has removed some crucial element on which the whole story hinges. He then makes it into a riddle, asking the reader to figure out what the character said or did to accomplish the particular feat of that story. I love folk tales and am a fan of mysteries, so these stories are great; they're especially good to share with friends on long road trips. My only gripe is that some of the solutions are far too easy - these are for kids, though, so it's understandable. And some of the tales are real head-scratchers, even for us grown folk. Altogether, a fun series of brain teasers, and I can't wait for my own children to try them out when they're older. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
