Hooked on Riddles by Mary Quijano

Why did the dinosaur cry when it saw a fossil? It got sedimental. This and many other fun riddles are waiting to be discovered in Mary Quijano’s Hooked on Riddles, a book that explores techniques for teaching kids with various education-themed riddles. Teach your students math, English, science, and more with the help of these easy-to-remember word puzzles. People of all ages learn more effectively if they are enjoying themselves, and with these riddles, your students will be continually challenged and entertained. Not many third-graders can claim to have giggled their way through their geology lesson and come away with lasting knowledge, but with this book, that is exactly what will happen. In each chapter, Quijano also provides tips on how to apply these puzzling questions to develop critical thinking skills in children. After all, are you more likely to remember the plain fact that stalactites grow on the ceiling, or this: “What did the grouchy stalagmite say to the stalactite? Quit dripping on me!”

I give this book 5 stars for it's content. I am a teacher and find this book very useful. My 10 year old son is truly HOOKED! He loves jokes and riddles and I like that it is educational. I would recommend this to any parent or teacher that wants a fun way to engage any child to learn. I gifted this to my son's teacher and she says she's now getting copies for the school's teacher resource library because so many other teachers wanted to borrow it.
