Animal Hidden Pictures

Puzzle fans of all ages will love these witty scenes of wildlife featuring clever concealments of incongruous items. For example, a clan of elephants munch their lunch amid a backdrop that includes, upon closer inspection, a Christmas stocking, feather, ski boot, hammer, thimble, and scissors. Other images feature amusingly absurd juxtapositions of unlikely items within portraits of a giraffe family, a chortling trio of hyenas, hatchling crocodiles, and a lone monkey among chattering parrots. Each of the 14 full-page illustrations appears with a chart of clues to its camouflaged objects. Their mysteries solved, the black-and-white puzzles offer hours of coloring fun.
