My granddaughter and I thought that reading and writing riddles in various languages would be a fun way to practice word meanings, so here is a riddle in English. Feel free to guess the answer and then write your own riddle for us to guess. Here goes:

Why did the man put suntan oil on his chicken?

So it wouldn’t get fried?

What do you call a kitten drinking lemonade?

A sour puss!

What did Cinderella say when she didn’t receive her pictures in the mail?

AAUUGGHH! That’s one of those that should be so simple, but I’m just not seeing it! Darn it – I know I will kick myself when I see the answer!

I haven’t a clue, but have you read Roald Dahl’s Revolting Rhymes???? Gosh they are so much fun…I have the “REAL” book and the e-book…my son gets so many laughs on that book I sometimes feel I should pay RD’s family for the fun!!!!

If you want them, let me know…I’ll e-mail the e-book to you…

Hi, Benjamin! Welcome to our world of riddles! Your answer is a very good one, but not the one I was looking for.
Here’s a clue: Your answer begins with the letter “h”, and the answer begins with a letter that is only four letters away from “h” in the alphabet. If you think about what you always do with the answer of this riddle…and what happens in a fight or match, such as the fact that one boxer gets beaten or _______, then you will definitely get it! You guys are soooo good at these riddles!!! I’m truly impressed!

Say what?

I’m lost! :(

Sandra, this refers to the heavyweight champion riddle. Any other questions, just let me know.

I am stuck but I will keep thinking about it.
