- (continued from previous page)What is one half of the moon like? The other.What has four legs and no head? A chairWhy was the elephant the last to leave the ark?
He had to stay to pack his trunk.Why does a cow look over a ditch?
Because she cannot look under it.What turns without moving?
New milk into sour.What has a head but cannot move it?
A pin.When does water stop running down a hill?
When it reaches the bottom.As round as a marble as deep as a cup and all the King's horses would not get it up? A well.What has legs but cannot walk?
A chair.It comes in the window and out the door. A letter.
