All the drawings are great. There are stories hidden in these pages. It can help my son to develop skill to describe picture and telling a story by connecting pictures. We also like the index page of 151 pokemons!

I picked this book up last year hopeing that maybe one or two of the younger kids on my p.m. route would look at it for a few minutes. (p.m. route is wild beyond control!)--I was amazed at the attention it got. Kids sat hypnotized by it. Yes,, they found them all; but that didn't seem to matter. They passed it from one to another, and even the older kids took the time to look and talk to the younger. This year they asked me to bring it again. I know the Pokemon craze is slowing quite a bit, but believe me, any book that can quiet a bus for even a short time is great in my opinion. I'm buying #2 & #3 Find Pokemon NOW.

My son just turned five and can not read, but he loves Pokemon. This book is a Where is Waldo type book and can be used by non-readers. On each page you have to find Pokemon while going through a maze. This book is more of a game then a reading book. I highly recommend this book for pre-reader Pokemon lovers to get them interested in looking at books on their own.

This is a beautiful book, but much too easy to find the "hidden" Pokemon. This was my 4-year-old son's first "find the character" book; he finished the book in one afternoon's car ride. Thankfully he's still enjoyed simply looking at the pictures since they are Pokemon.

I bought this book counting on the "Where's Waldo" style and difficulty. However, it falls somewhat short. The artist and/or publisher neglected the fact that kids have a lot of time on their hands. Especially when my wife and I want a few hours of peace and quiet. I'm not sure what the author/artist was aiming for really.

Sorry Nintendo, more market research would have been a plus. This book only lasts one nap, maybe two. Each session of the book gets shorter and shorter and the main appeal is the Pokémon characters. Nintendo is falling into the old rut of, "What can we market with Pokémon characters?" Instead of, "What should we market with Pokémon characters?"

My son just turned seven and found the Pokemon very easy to find. However, having said that he thoroughly enjoyed doing it.
