101 Amazing Optical Illusions

This is the one book that keeps my overactive 10 year old grandson enraptured. When he visits that is the first thing he goes for and can spend at least an hour each visit. I am finally buying him one of his own. It's very entertaining - extremely well illustrated.

great

I really like the Hound of the Baskervilles it aught to be a #1 bestseller
