Divided into three sections, it includes riddles made up of short rhymes, \"charades,\" which are riddles with a simple three-line structure (my first is x, my last is x, my whole is x), and conundrums, which are similar to 19th-century dad jokes, with the solutions included neatly in the back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFans of Netflix sensation Bridgerton, party games, and compelling puzzles will love these entertaining brainteasers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57718847471990,"sku":"9780486854878","price":11.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/stand_36637848.jpg?v=1776750547","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9780486854878-lady-dovers-regency-riddles","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
