I love puzzle books and have since I was young. This is a maze book for elementary/middle school age. It belonged to one of my kids and they never worked it, so I decided to.

Each page has a different maze and the story is a continuation of the page before. Near the beginning of the book it tells you to find a treasure chest and spider on every page. They were even on the title page after I finished the entire book and thought to look on there. Then on some pages you have other extra things to find. You have to use a mirror to read a note in one place and decipher a code at the end of the book. I love puzzles inside of puzzles and enjoyed working a book like I use to as a kid.

Usborne Maze Puzzles - Treasure Trails follows Cat and Mouse on a treasure-seeking adventure. Each page is a new maze you have to navigate, with detailed illustrations in which you have to find a few things. It's a lot of fun for children, not too hard but not too easy either.

I did try it a bit and was cute ish...if I was still a kid, I'd've liked it more. But I think this one is mainly mazes which aren't as fun as the math-based/more puzzle ish Usborne Puzzle Adventure Series. Its okay for kids but not for me.
