ISLAND BREEZES
This is a fun little book geared to ages six to nine. Some of the riddles are the kind that make big people groan and little people laugh out loud. The last page has bonus riddles that can put little feet on the right path.
If you let your child take a book to church to keep him quiet during the sermon, don’t take this one. The giggles could be disruptive.
