The Everything Kids' Puzzle Book (Everything Kids Series)
by Beth L. Blair, Jennifer A. Ericsson
Adams Media (March 2002)
ISBN-10: 1580626874 | 144 pages | English | PDF | 23 MB

It is an interesting, varied, not-your-run-of-the-mill activity book, with cute illustrations. A caveat is a large scatter of difficulty among activities, which created frustration when activities could not be figured out (it would've been better to mark activities with level of difficulty so children knew when they were approaching the most difficult ones), and some unusual and rather idiosyncratic answers that were difficult even for adults to come up with or explain. Overall, good fun.
