My 18 month old would read no other books than the I Spy series for a whole week! They have shown him in a simple way the association between words and pictures. He adores them!

Even though several of the reviews say that these books are too young for any child over the age of 3, I disagree.

We have 3 of these books (this one, I Spy Wheels, I Spy Letters) and my son, age 5, is still enjoying them, but in just a different way. We now play "I Spy" the traditional way with..."I Spy something that is yellow and floats." And then I have to guess what he is talking about (i.e. boat). And then I do the same. We continue until we have described everything in each of the pages. Yes, it takes a long time to go through the books, but it is so wonderful for his critical thinking skills.

Any now my 21 month old daughter gets to enjoy these books. They just don't wear out! One of the best gifts around!!

When I ordered this book I thought it would be a little beyond my 18 month old's ability. I was amazed when she was able to find the hidden objects - and delighted in doing so! I can see where it will easily grow with her over the next year. This was more than a book - an interactive puzzle!

Keep this book on hand for a real toddler treasure hunt. Take it with you to restaurants and car trips. It's fantastic. We have devoured this one. We've discovered a new one for even a younger child that is not to missed either; WHAT IS ROUND? In both, the photographs literally pop off the page. Keeps them happy while they are learning and discovering objects in their world!

I got this as a gift for my nephew..I heard great things about it when he first got it (from his mom)..but after awhile I think the 'novelty' wore off. We have some of the I Spy books at home here and my kids (ages 5-8)enjoy them but have found all the things they ask for in the book all too quickly. The fun in the books lies within all the stuff that they don't ask you to find..that you find! After awhile I find the searching wears thin...a better recommendation: Where's Waldo? books! Definitely a better challenge! This one is good for the toddlers though!

This is my daughter's favorite book. I like it because at 8 months she loved flipping through the pages and pointing to all the pictures, and now that she's 14 months she likes the "I Spy" aspect of it. It's definitely a book that has grown with her. A great gift!

This is a great for the average 3 year old or advance 2 year old. I think most 4 year olds wont find it very challenging

Book is super simple; Two "I spy" items per page. I wouldn't read it often because the thrill of 'finding' the item is lost when you can remember exactly where it is from day to day. My 20-month old has fun pointing to other items on the page and having me name them.

Just the right size to slip in my purse and have on hand at the restaurant while traveling and keeping the littlest granddaughter busy.

I purchased this book after seeing the high ratings and at first was not sure about it. It took a while for my 18m old to get into the book but now she wont put it down. She loves to "hunt" for the items that match on the other page and finds the same items now in our house (like the duck, sunglasses, etc) it is very cute.

Its a board book so its durable and the colors and pictures are very bright. I like how they used different images that we won't associate to another "frog" for instance, its an older frog image and nothing i have seen before.
