Customer Reviews

Lucky 13

This book was purchased for a "senior" who enjoyed the game but wanted more of a variation to her playing cards, and the print was large enough for her to follow, and she enjoys using the book to make the card game more challenging. Its a book that is not just for kids!

Great Fun For Kids and Great Resource for Parents!

"Lucky 13" is well written, clearly illustrated and a must have for families! The introduction explains simply all the terms and basics of solitaire(some of which are a great brush up for the adult!). Although the book does get into advanced games and strategies, the first section, "Beginning Games" is awesome for any age. My 7 and 5 year olds picked up these games quickly. Order a copy for vacation or home!! A rainy day lifesaver!

Great book - have fun and expand your child's mind!

I bought this book for my nephew, and he loved it. What a great way to not only have some fun, but also stretch your kid's mind. It is also good for keeping the kids busy on rainy days. This Micheal Street really understands how to explain games to children. Extremely well written.
