I Spy Super Challenger

Product Description Search-and-find riddles paired with amazing photographs will captivate kids of all ages in the bestselling I Spy series. Think you know every I Spy book out there? Think you've found every last bauble, bow, striped cat, and cloudy ship? Think again! Jean Marzollo has written her most challenging riddles yet to accompany Walter Wick's fabulous photographs culled from the original I Spy books. You've never seen I Spy like this! From School Library Journal PreSchool-Grade 4. Wick's spectacularly photographed, double-page spreads are taken from favorites such as I Spy Funhouse (1993) and I Spy School Days (1995, both Scholastic). Marzollo's cleverly written new rhyming couplets encourage readers to seek a new batch of items. Playing cards, beads, dominos, blocks, and other trinkets are all arranged attractively and with wit, yet this does not lessen the difficulty of locating the sought-after objects. Extending the usefulness of what might otherwise be a "once through" book are the "Extra Credit Riddles"?couplets that refer back to the pictures on the earlier pages, but for which no specific page is identified. Just as Marzollo created new riddles for this book, children are invited to create more rhymes and riddles of their own based on the pictures.?Linda Greengrass, Bank Street College Library, New York City Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc.
