Customer Reviews

Disappointed :(

Ordered this book for my grandson, he has several of them that I also purchased from Thrift that were in very good shape. This one said Very Good but it has a page missing! and was scribbled on the front intro. pages. Disappointed. Will try to order another one and hopefully it has all the pages.

Terrific books

I love this author and illustrator. Wonderful series of books. Very vivid pictures; the manner in which it's written allows the books to be enjoyed by a wide age range. I bought all books by this author!

Yet another wonderful Walter Wick creation!!

Whether you choose to go with his 'I Spy' collection or this 'Can You See What I See' collection (or both!), you simply can not go wrong!! I have yet to see anyone (from my three year old niece to my 73 year old father!) not become engrossed in Walter Wick's works. We currently have ALL of the two collections, and I continue to buy more as gifts! Simply wonderful books for quality time with the kids, or quiet time for the adults as the children devour the beautiful pages on their own. *Just a note--if your kids are 'pre-readers' they will need help with knowing what to look for--but you can give them three or four items at a time and then sit back and read something else for yourself! So, these books help with their learning to read, their observational skills, AND their memory skills--lol--not to mention YOUR memory skills when they ask, 'what was the third thing you said to look for?' Oops.... :-) 'Uh, let mommy see the page one more time..... lol....'

My children's all-time favorite books

If you want to spend some quiet time with your children at the end of the day, you can't go wrong here. The idea is to search for hidden items in each picture. The depth of detail in each scene is just amazing, and the pictures themselves are fascinating in their own right. There are plenty of easy finds to amuse a toddler, yet a wealth of subtle puzzles to challenge the older kids and adults. You have to see them to appreciate the rich detail that goes into each page. You can search for hidden items from the list on each page, or better yet, explore the pictures yourselves to find much more. Take turns and challenge each other. We have all the "Can You See..." and "I Spy" books (also photographed by Walter Wick). These classic books never grow old, we find yet more hidden details each time we open them. Definitely keepers.

Can You See What I See? Once Upon A Time

We love this book. I like the size of the book and that it is a hard cover. The pictures are wonderful, so vivid and like out of the fairy tale movie. It's deffinatly a book for all ages.

Comes packed with powerful visuals throughout.

Walter Wick's CAN YOU SEE WHAT I SEE? ONCE UPON A TIME offers up rhyming clues for each photograph designed to lead readers on a magical quest for treasure. Kids who like puzzles and visuals will relish this addition to Wick's 'Can You See What I See?' series, which comes packed with powerful visuals throughout.
