Guess Again! by Mac Barnett, illustrated by Adam Rex
This book is a guessing game, with questions and answers on alternating pages. Each question spread shows a scene with a black silhouette of the obvious answer, which of course is proved wrong on the following spread with a very silly answer and filled in illustration. Rex’s illustrations are goofy and hilarious without veering into cheesy territory. The facial expressions of the people and creatures are spot-on, making the book work. This is a perfect read-aloud for mid-elementary age kids.
Recommended. Reviewed from library copy.
