5.0 out of 5 stars where's waldo...with a cute twist, July 14, 2001

This review is from: The Best Halloween Hunt Ever (Paperback)

I'm not sure why this book claims to be appropriate for baby-preschool ages. On the back of the book, it has a reading level 2 clearly marked on it. We even bought it from the Scholastic book forms the kids got in second grade.

At any rate, this book is good for a variety of ages, which is a definite plus when you have children of different ages. Little ones can help spot the pictures. Older ones can read the story as well as spot the pictures.

My family and I did this as a 'group' project. Each child would scan thru the page and try to find all the pictures first. There are 11 pictures, so the week around Halloween, we'd pull the books out and try to find all the pictures. It made the waiting time for Halloween go by and it also let them enjoy Halloween just a bit longer.

John Speirs' books are a lot of fun and I highly recommend them!

5.0 out of 5 stars My 4 year old LOVED this one!, October 30, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Best Halloween Hunt Ever (Paperback)

My 4 year old son had the best time trying to find the hidden pictures in this book. He wanted to look at it every night before bed for about 2 weeks. The book has lots of hidden pictures that you and your child will both have lots of fun finding! My 2 year old even liked it! We're going to get other books like this by the same author for sure!

My three year old son loves this book! We have so much fun looking through all of the pictures and finding the hidden objects. It has been a great tool for increasing concentration.
