World Treasury of Riddles

One of the earliest types of folk wisdom from the grand old oral traditions, the riddle was a favourite form of word play for many of history's greatest minds, from Aristotle to James Joyce.

A WORLD TREASURY OF RIDDLES is a collection of the best riddles from around the world, collected by mythologist and scholar Phil Cousineau.

While most riddle books are oriented to children, Cousineau has created this treasury to appeal to both adults and older children.
