Bet you can't guess just one!

Engaging riddles in rhyme for each letter of the alphabet fill the books in the

ABC Riddles series with hours of fun for young readers. Challenged to match letters

and sounds, and to think logically, youngsters can enjoy these books alone, or

with friends, parents, teachers and classmates. Try one!

I start with a K and end with an L.
Kids love to play me and they do it well.
Players run round the bases.
(Someone usually chases.)
If you miss the catch,
the ball you must fetch.
Sometimes you get hurt
and fall in the dirt,
but still you want to play.
What am I? Can you say?

(from ABC School Riddles)

I start with an F. I'm four letters long.
I can be small,
or quite big and strong.
I can be flat
or be round and fat.
Through the water I sail,
with my fins and a tail.
Sometimes I even fly.
Can you guess? What am I?

(from ABC Nature Riddles)

I start with a K and end with an E.
My bright colors fly
on a string you can't see.
I do tricks in the sky
when the wind carries me.
I can climb way up high.
Can you name me?

(from Alphabet Riddles)

Ideas for teachers and parents in every book!

Creating riddles in rhyme is a wonderful way to help children explore words. As

they become engaged in the poetic process, their vocabulary will blossom and

their understanding of words and meanings will grow. What a fun way to develop

reading, writing, thinking and vocal presentation skills! Drawing pictures to go

with their riddles can add another dimension to this learning experience. (Peel

Productions, Inc. has a popular Draw series of instructional books for budding

artists - see www.drawbooks.com for detailed info, samples pages and lessons.)
