Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 October 2014

I have this as a coffee table book that friends can flick through and do a quick puzzle or a bit of colouring in. It's attractive and a good quality book (as expected from Usborne) with varied content, but some of the puzzles are quite tricky to see in the small font/book size.

Well worth the reduced price paid on Amazon.

4.0 out of 5 stars Really handy for your handbag to stave off boredom
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 June 2013
Verified Purchase
I bought this for my 6 yr old son, as we have a couple of weddings to go to in the next few weeks and I think this will keep him in his seat for longer during the 'boring' bits. I'm not a fan of the kids running about all over the place when people are eating / speeches etc but I do see how boring it can be for a youngster.

Size is great and will fit neatly in my bag. Pictures are clear and the topics not overly challenging!

5.0 out of 5 stars Lustige Wimmelaufgaben für Grundschulkinder mit Anfangsenglisch
Reviewed in Germany on 24 April 2013
Verified Purchase
Die vielen Wimmelbilder in diesem Buch sind wirklich pfiffig gestaltet, so dass man mal eine Weile gucken darf, bevor man die Lösungen entdeckt. Dabei gibt es verschiedene Aufgabentypen, die alle in einfachen Englisch kindertauglich erklärt werden. Die Zeichnungen sind ansprechend kindgerecht mit rundlichen, schlichten Formen ohne dabei kitschig zu werden.
