That darn Rhymes with Orange



May we recommend 'D'Aulaires' Book of Greek Myths'? [Rhymes with Orange letter]

Harise Poland-Wright, Silver Spring

After reading, with incredulity, George H. Spencer's Free for All letter bemoaning the obscurity of the term "Sisyphean," I turned to the comics. The "Rhymes With Orange" was a sight gag using Sisyphus as a punchline! (A child in a ball pit was pushing a ball up a slide, with Mom on the sidelines asking, "Having fun, Sisyphus?") Not so obscure after all!
