"Life: The Amazing Picture Puzzle" contains 90 challenging puzzles. Most of the puzzles are ones where you are given two photographs of the same thing and have to spot the differences between the two pictures. Scattered throughout the book are "cut-up puzzles" in which the editors have cut a photo into 4, 6, 12, or 16 pieces, rearranged them, and you have to figure out the correct order of the pieces to reassemble the photo. There are several different levels of puzzles including Novice, Master, Expert, and Genius as well as a section featuring photos of animals and a section with classic photos from Life Magazine. At the very end of the book is a Guinness World record photo featuring 80 changes.

"Life: The Amazing Picture Puzzle" is Life's fourth picture puzzle book and is even more challenging than the first three. The book starts off slowly to give newcomers a chance to get used to the puzzles with the first puzzle having eight easy changes and becomes increasingly difficult as the book progresses. The changes in the photos range from the very obvious (and usually humorous) to very difficult to find. Many of the puzzles will have at least one change in color. Each section starts with a puzzle with a few changes and by the end of the section the puzzles all have several changes. Next to each puzzle there is a column where you can mark each change as you find it. For the most part, the editors do a good job of putting the puzzles in the appropriate section. The cut-up puzzles are my least favorite since I find them almost impossible to do without cutting up the book, which I don't want to do since I may want to reuse the book one day. While the last puzzle with 80 changes is pretty easy, it's very hard to keep track of the changes you find, even with the checklist. Finally, don't forget to check the answer section, even if you find all the changes, as the comments about each change are very funny.

"Life: The Amazing Picture Puzzle" provides hours of challenging fun.

Many Hour's of fun and relaxation... not to mention challenging your Brain. I Will buy again and I really appreciate Amazon's Website! :)

I HAVE FOUND THESE TYPE OF BOOKS VERY SATISFYING AND CHALLANGING. THEY GIVE A PERSON A MIND SOOTHING EXPEIRANCE. I HAVE FOUND THAT WHEN I WORK ON ONE, AND I AM HAVING A BAD DAY DUE TO PRESSURES, THE BOOKS HELP A LOT TO RELIEVE THE TENTION. THANK YOU FOR ALL THESE BOOKS.....JIM

I have bought all of the picture puzzle books and love giving them for gifts. There is not an age group, gender, or personality type that has not enjoyed them. Great for traveling, waiting rooms, or coffee table. I bought the whole series for my friends 5th grade class room; she "lets the kids play with them as rewards". The kids beg to play! You or the intended receiver of gift will not be disappointed. 100% guarantee A+++++

These books are a lot of fun. I give them for gifts all the time.

These books are so much fun--I look forward to each new one coming out. Hours and hours of pleasant fun while you try to spot the differences.

I love to exercise my brain, and one way I really enjoy is picture puzzle books. It starts out easy and gets progressively harder. Usually I find the differences right away, but sometimes I can stare for quite a while at a glaring difference. That always makes me roll my eyes and shake my head. Why didn't I see that? These are great puzzles to help get your mind off hectic work days and also for road trips.

What is not to love about these books...they keep you wanting more and yet can be so frustrating
