Customer Reviews

Terrific fun

This is the second Life picture puzzle book I've bought, and they both are terrific. The pictures are engaging, and it's so much fun to work out the "picture puzzle" and find the differences. I wish there were more of these books available. I had hours of fund with this.

Great Entertainment

This book is a visual masterpiece. Page after page of challenging picture puzzles that tease your brain. This book makes a super airline take-along. You can spend hours working the puzzles while needing no pencil, no batteries, or any other device. The graphics are colorful and engaging. One word of caution for the literary set...this is a graphics puzzle book. There are almost no words. Love it that way.

Great for ALL Ages !!

I got this for my son, for his 10th birthday. He had other presents to open, so his 15 Y/O brother took it, and could not put it down. Soon, Grandma was competeing with the 15 Y/O (all in fun), and then my 5 Y/O boy jumped on Grandma's lap and was playing too. They timed themselves, trying to beat the time listed on each puzzle. Once you start the book, honestly, you don't want to put it down until you have solved them all. The easy ones are really easy, but the more difficult ones can really make your head spin (in a good way). I am glad that they have another one. I will get that one, and will also send this to my neice. Great Brain fun. Very cool to see instead of the kids playing video games.

What fun !

This book is as much fun as the weekly [now no more] puzzle. I think it is a good stimulus for the older brain, and definitely a patience-maker for the youngest ones. My granddaughter and I had fun together with this book.

brain exercise

So often we are inundated with a wealth of information. Yet, our minds are seldom given the chance to exercise themselves in order to achieve greater clarity. The brain teasers provided in this book are welcome and provide a welcome respite from the triviality of the everyday world.
