Description
Search and Solve Riddles by Gary Panton is filled with over 150 of the best riddles around. This fun and challenging puzzle book is designed to give kids’ brains a workout.
From quick, easy riddles to keep young minds ticking over to longer riddles that involve some serious thinking power, this book is packed with brain-bending, rib-tickling conundrums to develop logic and lateral-thinking skills.
However, this is a riddle book with a difference. Once children have worked out the answer, they then need to find it in the illustration. Sometimes the answer will be hidden in a busy search scene, or sometimes it’ll be among an array of objects. This increases the number of activities to do per page, which makes it all the more fun.
There will be decoy options in the scenes as well to make searching more tricky, but kids can find all the answers at the back of the book if they get stuck.
Solve the riddle, search for the answer!
