From School Library Journal:
Grade 3-5-A book of riddles that characterizes teachers and school administrators as the "bad guys." Often, the scenarios involve a child who misunderstands a situation or is slow. The jokes are old and new, including some that deal with contemporary topics such as computers. Each page is illustrated with a small black-and-white cartoon. Occasionally, children may need adult interpretation to understand the punch line. An additional purchase.

From Booklist:
Gr. 3-6. What a promisea book a child will never have to do a report on! Jokes on report cards, spelling, teachers, and everything else that goes on in the classroom fill the pages, and there's no mean or bathroom humor to mar the effect. The jokes are brief and easy to read, and they offer a quick rewardthey prove we can all still get a good laugh from a word problem. Black-and-white illustrations by Susanna Natti are planned.
