Put on your sleuth hat (adult, child or work together) to solve the twenty puzzles in this book. These brain teasers relate to art, either in periods or works and look like fun to solve.

There are entertaining cartoon like illustrations throughout. Use logic, think and try to come up with the solution. The puzzles are graded by difficulty and cover many time periods and art movements. Start with paleolithic times and make your way to more modern art, including the cubists and surrealists.

This book offers a fun combination of learning and solving. It would make a great gift for a child and could offer some non screen time fun. This title is part of a series so solvers might want to look for the other ones as well.

Note that the back of the book has a section called “Experience the Art.” There are a number of projects here.

Many thanks to NetGalley and Chronicle Books for this title. All opinions are my own.
