Can You See What I See?: Picture Puzzles to Search and Solve

My three-year-old son and I love this book. Some of the puzzles are beyond him but many or not, and I had a great deal of fun figuring them out on my own. I highly recommend this book to anyone with children, big or small.Another hidden puzzle we found within the book -- on every page spread in the book, the little yellow-and-red "bead boy" (clearly visible on the title page) appears somewhere. The only place we HAVEN'T been able to find him is the "Magic Tricks" page....if someone spots him there, give us a shout out, OK?

Games and photographs, and more games?your kids will love this book! It?s wonderful fun, and a wonderful sharing experience, and quite frankly don?t be alarmed if your kids smoke you at the games like my kids did me. Children are more keen with their eyes, and a world more determined. Two other musts for your kids library are: Jay Singh?s The Butterfly and E.B. White?s Charolette?s Web. And an absolute must for your own shelf: Paulo Coelho?s The Alchemist

In Can You See What I See? Walter Wick takes the basic picture puzzle one step further and adds another element of puzzle to it. One example of this is, as well as finding different objects listed in the amazing photos, you have to determine what is missing on several playing cards. These twists give added challenge, especially thrilling for adult fans. I definately am excited to see what Mr. Wick will deliver in the future.

These 12 pictures puzzles are beautiful to look out and ageless to figure out. In a picture puzzle, clear photography and faultless printing are essential. CAN YOU SEE WHAT I SEE? is the best I've ever seen. With this one there's very little of the trying to guess "what is that blurry thing?" that you get in other picture puzzle books. And it's clear what you're looking for. One nice thing too is that the list of things to find is right on the page with the picture -- no flipping back and forth to other pages. This is so much fun that after a friend saw my book she went and ordered one for herself, and when her niece saw hers and wanted one of her own, she got her one, too. I'm telling you, this is really fun -- and addictive. Whether you look at it alone or with a group, you'll have a good time! Makes a great ice breaker.

My speech therapy students and I are loyal fans of Walter Wick's I Spy books. We anxiously await each new book wondering what the new book's theme will be. Can You See What I See? has gone beyond our expectations. This is a wonderful picture puzzle book that appeals to all age levels. As an educator, I find the language development opportunities are endless. My students enjoy the clues and pictures without realizing how many skills they are learning from the book. This book can provide wonderful opportunities for parent/child interaction as well as classroom fun!
