The Legend of Rock Paper Scissors by Drew Daywalt

The epic tale of the classic game Rock, Paper, Scissors.

You’ve played the game. Now read the legend of how it all began . . .

 

I found this book at Barnes and Nobles, and it is hilarious. It might not be as hilarious as ‘Walter the Farting Dog’ but just as amusing. I highly recommend this book for storytime at elementary schools. I still don’t get how Paper beats Rock but whatever.

 

Since this is my blog and I can talk about whatever I want, I decided to take the opportunity to introduce you to a different version of Rock, Paper, Scissors. It is called . . .

 

Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock

This is a version of the traditional game created by some guy on the Internet and discussed on The Big Bang Theory.

Here are the rules:

Scissors cuts Paper

Paper covers Rock

Rock crushes Lizard

Lizard poisons Spock

Spock smashes Scissors

Scissors decapitates Lizard

Lizard eats Paper

Paper disproves Spock

Spock vaporizes Rock

. . . and as it always has, Rock crushes Scissors
