I warmly recommend this book,
By Albert Frank (Belgium) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Amazing "Aha!" Puzzles: Improve Your Ability to Think 'outside the Box' and Boost Your Creativity! (Paperback)
When I read Lloyd's King book, Amazing "Aha!" Puzzles, I had the impression it's one of the best puzzle books ever written. There are very few books involving lateral thinking - for sure, this one does. Lloyd, founder of the Vinci Society, has an incredibly high imagination and creativity.

Puzzles Can Be Adapted for Training and Workshops,
By Liz Lowe (Morgantown, WV USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Amazing "Aha!" Puzzles: Improve Your Ability to Think 'outside the Box' and Boost Your Creativity! (Paperback)
How does one invoke an "Aha" moment? How do you lead people from bewilderment to clarity with simple drawings, letters, and numbers? Lloyd King has perfected the art of puzzles, packing them with a triple punch of outright satisfaction, humor, and surprise.
If you are a trainer or workshop leader, these puzzles can be adapted for your use. The puzzles are great for ice breakers for any group or topic or could be used as exercises to support topics such as creativity, humor, or even change management. I have been a trainer and/or workshop leader for over twenty years and am always looking for new ideas and ways to adapt existing materials to my training needs. Let me give an example how you can adapt Lloyd's puzzles as an ice breaker. * Find out the number of participants in your workshop or session. * Prior to your workshop pick out some puzzles from Lloyd King's book. * You can simply redraw the puzzle on paper for each group. * Consider dividing the workshop participants into small groups of 5-6 people. * Offer participants an overview of the exercise. "Each group will be given a puzzle to solve. You have five minutes to work together and solve it. You will need to pick a representative who will describe your process to the entire group." * Allow participants 5 minutes to collaboratively solve the puzzle. * At the end of the time period have the representative from each group come forward one at a time, show the puzzle to the entire group, and describe how they reached the solution. If the group did not solve the puzzle - open the challenge up to the entire group. Provide guidance if necessary.

Puzzles are fun.,
This review is from: Amazing "Aha!" Puzzles: Improve Your Ability to Think 'outside the Box' and Boost Your Creativity! (Paperback)
I like Lloyd King's puzzles! They are challenging, creative, often very amusing, and great fun. For me, this is a 5 star puzzle collection, indeed Lloyd is a 5 star puzzler, and has been for the 20 or so years that I have known him.
