Riddles for the Whole Family

SOMEBODY READS A RIDDLE OUT LOUD, AND THE WHOLE TABLE STARTS GUESSING AT ONCE. Every chapter is a round, and the last round belongs to the kids. The plates are cleared, but nobody gets up. The quietest person at the table solves one first. The grown-ups talk themselves into the wrong answer, then groan when it comes out. On the road, the whole car plays, driver included, with someone reading from the passenger seat. - Six rounds, from Warm-Up Whoppers and Word Wizards to The Great Outdoors - Stump the Grown-Ups, the final round, where the kids try trick questions on the adults - Nothing to set up, no rulebook, no referee, just whoever is at the table Start with the staircase riddle, and dessert is going to have to wait.
