A good collection of advanced dot-to-dot images. My teens had fun completing them and coloring the resulting pictures.

This book is going to fill in a lot of time in a good way. The dot to dot is a little different as it has little deviation and not just a straight dot to dot sequence. Some of the end results are almost visible at the start, but they are very intriguing and the end result are very chaming. The last paces hold the finished designs in the case of comparison. Thanks you NetGalley and the publishers for the DR

The Incredible Dot-to-Dot Challenge is brilliant! I had originally thought it would be great to keep my children occupied and off screens, but I found myself sneakily finishing off their pictures! Then the temptation just got too much and I started one myself. So it's become something that we can all enjoy together, and it's a great pick-up put-down activity.

I absolutely loved this book. Now at the time I had no printer access to print out the puzzles to do by hand which is by far my main method of doing dot to dot puzzles or any other types of puzzles but for only to being able to do it over my phone I thought that the book was great. And as you went farther and farther into the book so did the level rating and how many dots each puzzle had some of the ending puzzles was very cute that I want to badly get the book printed out so I can the do the puzzle and color the images because they were that adorable. And also the only qualm I have is that most of the dot to dot books that I have gotten in the past always says the range of numbers are supposed to be and on the back of the puzzle there is usually some sort of fact about the image or some sort of quote from a famous person. I really enjoy those ones because I have been compiling the facts and quotes from famous people into notebooks in my spare time hoping to one day get these said notebooks of mine published. But so far it was a great little book to do for kids teenagers and adults who love puzzles as much as I do and I would highly recommend it again for anyone else who loves all sorts of puzzles I also loved the length of pages as well it gives people what they paid for. So with all that being said I say well done and give it a five star ratings..

This book is really fun and filled with very complex designs. They have hundreds of dots, so it can take a while to find the numbers in order. The instructions are straightforward and easy to follow.

Book 057 of 300 ~ 2024

🌟🌟🌟

I actually enjoy doing these however, I prefer doing them in physical copy. Getting older, them tiny dots and given most are over 500 dots, can be rather... painful to do to say the least.

Would have given higher stars if I had the physical copy or a print out for sure.

I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

This was a very entertaining and creative book. I really enjoyed the details in each picture. Our favorites were the cowboy scene and mountain cabin. I really had to pay attention to get these perfect. It was so fun. And once the picture was complete we enjoyed coloring them in. It was a great family activity. Your family will love it too. Makes a great gift as well.

Amazing, and great for the older kids and adults. Very intricate designs. As long as you have the patience to count well into the several hundreds, this is for you

Who doesn’t love a good dot to dot puzzle? It takes us back to simpler times with less stress and more fun, although you would be wrong for thinking these puzzles are simple.
Filled with intricate puzzles from cover to cover, this book will keep you busy for hours. The perfect break from hectic day to day life.

I enjoyed that you couldn’t tell ahead of time what the pictures were going to be. It made it really fun to discover what I was drawing, a fun mystery. It took me a minute to understand the instructions, but basically you begin at a star, continue on following the black dots, when you come to an empty dot, lift the pencil and find the next star. That was a challenge sometimes because the next star could be anywhere on the page. If you like dot-to-dot, give this one a try! It’s a fun one.
Thank you for the eARC!

What I like and appreciate most about this Dot-to-Dot collection, is that I can easily see the black numbers to follow. Many times, publishers use this light grey that makes it hard to see. But this book is full of the darker numbers. There is also what the dots make at the end of the book.

Thanks #NetGalley for #TheIncredileDottoDotChallenge

"The Incredible Dot-to-Dot Challenge" I would say is just incredible in that it isn't an easy dot-to-dot. It does challenge but the images are a bit standard. When I picture incredible I picture more detail in the final image. These are decent but I wouldn't go as far as incredible.

It was challenging but not challenging enough. Love the different pictures and styles of connect the dots

I loved this book. It brought me back to my childhood playing connect the dots but a lot more challenging which I love.

Brilliant! I love puzzles and I still work crosswords and other word puzzles but dot-to-dot is usually too easy. This might be frustrating for a very young person but many children and adults could spend some hours of enjoyment filling these in and then coloring them. Fantastic challenge!
Thanks to NetGalley for letting me preview this ARC

This book is an absolute joy and takes me back to my own childhood.

The images are of course more intricate than those I encountered in my youth and certainly more whimsical and challenging.

The dot to dot is a nice variation on colouring books and has merit as a meditative pastime. At its core, it is nostalgia at its finest and a great book to reintroduce a classic hobby into contemporary consciousness

An absolutely brilliant idea. I’m always looking for things to do to stop me scrolling my phone. This was perfect for that .
I will say this isn’t for a newbie in dot-to-dot as it goes up to over 500 on some pictures. There is a blank side under every one so there will be no bleeding through to the next page which is a genius idea as then you can add as much detail once you’re finished as you would like. I like to use pencil then go over with pen or sometimes shade in, due to the style and quality you could use sharpies, felt tips, paint or anything you’d like.


I got given an arc so didn’t have to pay for anything but I did print off some pages to give some ago.

I have been looking for things that I can use to replace phone scrolling when I'm feeling frigidity or unfocused. This activity book is perfect for travel, doing while watching TV or waiting at the doctor's office. Super fun but also robust enough to be challenging for adults.

This will provide hours of entertainment! I was surprised by how much I couldn’t tell what the end results would look like. The book has a picture on every page, so you’re not bleeding through, whether you use pens or markers. I personally would choose pencil first, just in case of mistakes, and then I’d go over it with markers. The solutions can be found in the back, which is helpful if you’ve lost your place or are getting frustrated.

I highly recommend this if you like more of a challenge…these aren’t for beginners!

Thank you to NetGalley and H.R. Wallace Publishing for an eARC in exchange for my honest feedback.
