Gentaro Kagawa's Curious Quest: Time Travel is part of the best-selling "Learn by Playing" maze picture book series by Japanese author and illustrator Gentaro Kagawa.
The book features 12 highly detailed, beautifully illustrated, and visually accurate maze designs filled with quizzes, riddles, and hidden objects to solve the quest. As a child wanders through the forest, they find a pyramid-shaped piece of glass that reveals a mysterious pattern when held in the light.
As the child further explores the forest, they encounter Ancient Japanese Ruins and must decipher what the mysterious pattern means, solving the maze to find the key to the gate of time and space. Throughout the journey, different keys must be discovered to enter a new civilization, where hidden objects must be found and mazes solved, all leading to the Lost City of Atlantis.
Each maze shares facts about its origins, inhabitants, animals, and vegetation. Clues are offered to help solve each maze, along with an answer key.

About the Author
Gentaro Kagawa, born in Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture, has loved mazes since childhood. His fascination with castle structures, resembling mazes, became a beloved hobby. He studied painting in high school, attended Musashino Art University, and completed graduate school in 1986. In 1989, he began illustrating castle restorations, later expanding to historical illustrations for magazines and textbooks. Inspired by his child's love for mazes, he published Maze of Time in 2005. Since then, 18 titles in the "Maze Picture Book Series" (PHP Institute) have sold over 3 million copies. Since 2017, he has co-authored with his daughter, Shiori Kagawa.
