This review is from: Puzzle Mountain (Usborne Young Puzzle Books) (Paperback)

This book provides many hours of entertainment and is just great fun for the child, the friends, siblings and the parents! Everybody will enjoy these books. Puzzle Mountain is about " Poppy Pickaxe and her puppy Bernard " She is trying to climb to the top of the mountain where the rare " Yodel flower ` is. " Basil " Collects rare mountain flowers and you must spot him on each double page. " Mountain Monster" lives on Puzzle Mountain and you must also spot him on each double page. He is a strange, furry blue creature. Then in each of the double pages in these wonderful illustrations you need to find prizes for the sports day winners that consists of prize badge, hiking boot, cowbell, toboggan trophy and many more objects. You don't know what page which object is on so you must remember these objects (or look back in the first couple pictures until you get it narrowed down) this adventure takes you to find which path, find the missing skaters, which skier in which chair. My favorite was the toboggan race and finding the route (a fun maze!) Each set of double pictures also has a puzzle, full of mazes, searches, matching, and spotting. This really was a lot of fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another tip-top "Puzzle" book, April 12, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Puzzle Mountain (Usborne Young Puzzle Books) (Paperback)

One of the best of a great series for early readers with fun puzzles. The main character explores a complex world, in this case an alpine mountain complete with ski slopes, skating rinks, and even a mountain monster. My 6 yr old son loved to scan the visual puzzles -- similar to "Where's Waldo" -- but I liked the parts where he had to calculate how to spend money to buy dog treats at the mountain bakery. He devoured the whole series, but a few favorites stand out including this one, Puzzle Planet, Puzzle Jungle. We want more!

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Puzzle Mountain (Usborne Young Puzzle Books) (Paperback)

I like this book because it was fun to look around and explore. I like looking for the prizes on every page the best. I like looking out for the bad guy Basil and beating him to the top of the mountain and looking for the blue mountain monster...
