These books - and I have picked this one as I have been reading it to my youngest - are rare indeed: children's picture books which absorb the child and don't drive the parent barking mad with boredom.
These books work on several different levels, and an intelligent and diligent child with a fairly simple reading vocabulary (anything from a smart Y1 to a Y4) will be kept quiet for hours: there are so many things to find on each double page that even Mum doesn't always manage it.
Brilliant concept. Brilliant execution. Full marks.

I bought this book for my child to use whilst travelling - we've had several from the series before and always found them fun to do. This one was no exception and helped pass the time nicely on a plane trip. It followed the same format as the others and ensured that there was plenty to look for on all the pages and get our brains ticking! The books are good for younger children who can read and have basic numeracy skills, as well as giving them lots of, sometimes quite well hidden, things to look for. My child's powers of observation were certainly put to the test.

Another great Puzzle Book we read over and over.
19 Nov 2006
Format:Paperback
I began buying Usborne Young Puzzle Books for my daughter two years ago, at age 4. She loves them all, and we re-read them constantly at her request, even now when she can read to herself. This book is one of her favorites; she enjoys the plot and the puzzles. The story is about a boy who, having studied Egypt in school recently, was invited to visit his aunt, an archeologist in Egypt. But when he arrives, he finds her missing and must using his wits to find the pyramid treasure before the dastardly villain. We highly recommend all 15 of the puzzle books by Susannah Leigh.

Great Fun

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Each page of this book has a puzzle to solve- work your way through a maze, find what is different, look for something missing and so on. In addition to that there is an overall game of find the things on each page that are scattered around. It is like a "Where's Waldo" book only there is more to it than just finding one man or a few people in a crowded picture. In addition to that it is a story too.
All of the Usborne Young Puzzle books are great for young readers who like to challenge themselves. My daughter who is not a reader likes to sit on my lap and work through the puzzles as I read the bo ok. It is a fun and interesting read.
