Can You See What I See?: Picture Puzzles to Search and Solve
Deceptively simple, Walter Wick'sCan You See What I See?pairs  rhyming lists of miniature objects with big, jam-packed photographs of the kinds  of odds and ends found in any toy chest: blocks, beads, robots, dice, marbles,  plastic animals, and game-board playing pieces. As in the I Spy series by Wick  and rhymester Jean Marzollo, readers are invited to find the objects buried  within the carefully chaotic piles. But Wick goes beyond the original formula in  this book, slipping extra puzzles into the picture. Each rhyme ends with the  beginning of a new game; in "Spare Parts," for example, after finding the listed  items, readers must match 10 parts to 10 broken toys. In other games, readers  spot the differences between objects, find their way out of a maze, decipher  cryptic messages, or figure out optical illusions. Clever, sharp-eyed kids who  are ready for greater challenges than the I Spy picture riddle series (I Spy Year-Round Challenger!,I Spy Funhouse, etc.),  fire up those brain synapses!
