Excellent guessing, Riddlers! This week we're jumping into the mud. Margo's picked out a book that will tell us about one of its many uses. Friday we'll be chatting with Stuart Gibbs, author of Spy School, so be sure to check back! See you all around the book block. ; ) ~ F
Two elements mix, and I'm what brews. I'll trip up your walk and
muddle your shoes. I'm a sign of change one season shows; when the
ground melts, everyone knows. A seeping suck with every move, I'll make
it harder to keep your groove. But I'm lots of fun for the younger kind,
who play with me right and use their mind. Perhaps a pie will be made
of me, served with rocks or leaves from a tree. I'm known to be dirty,
but that's untrue. I'm good for your skin, and there's much more I do.
What can I be? That's the quarry. Take care when I'm deep or you'll be
sorry.
What am I? Answer: Mud!
