    Editor's Note

                          During the Lunar New Year and especially during the Lantern Festival,
                      Chinese, young and old, engage in a favorite cultural as recreational
                      activity-guessing riddles. Most riddles are descriptions of, or metaphors

                      for, the characteristics of external phenomena or the behavioral attributes
                      of a broad range of creatures and things. Since the birth of the Republic
                      of China, the Folklore Society at Chungshan University has collected and
                      published many traditional riddle books. The riddles presented in The
                      Overseas Chinese Library are selected from these publications. We have

                      also collected more recent riddles about modern things for our Library.
                      Because Chinese riddles are rhymed and full of fun, they are loved by
                      children.
