INTRODUCTION
If you're between the ages of eight and twelve, we know there are puzzles in this book you will love. Maybe you're wacky for word play. We've got it. Maybe you think picture puzzles are positively peachy. They're here. Maybe you're cuckoo for crisscrosses or think mazes are marvelous. Look inside. This book isn't called the Everything Kids' Puzzle Book for nothing!
Not only did we cram as many kinds of puzzles into this book as possible, we also came up with all types of themes to interest you. You'll find everything from Pets to Pizza, Music to Monsters, Camping to Computers. And wherever there was room, we stuffed in fascinating facts and Fast n' Funny jokes.
To make things even more exciting, there are a couple of puzzles that run through the whole book. First, watch for Mervin the mouse. He's hidden somewhere on each and every spread (the two pages you have open at any one time). Sometimes he's easy to spot-but not always! You will also notice that there are random white letters mixed among the dark ones. These are not mistakes, but are clues to the White Out! puzzle found in the "What a Great Idea!" section.
So, flip the book open and dive right in. We wish you many happy puzzling hours ahead!
