My three year old son loves this book! We have so much fun looking through all of the pictures and finding the hidden objects. It has been a great tool for increasing concentration.
 Not for little ones January 4, 2007

I got this book for my 3-year old granddaughter as a Halloween present and was so disappointed in it that I bought a substitute gift. It is a very difficult seek-and-find picture book; not a storybook. Definatley not a "read with me" book! The pictures are very complex and impossible to solve. Save your money!
Not-too-Spooky Colorful Fun September 26, 2006

My five-year-old LOVES this book. Unlike the I Spy titles, the objects to hunt for are shown as pictures, which means she doesn't need anyone to read the text to her. The hunts are definitely easier than those in I Spy as well (heck -- I Spy is a bit of a challenge for ME).
The pictures are colorful and highly detailed, full of deliciously creepy Halloween icons. The emphasis is definitely on fun Halloween activities -- parties, amusement parks, parades, a visit to Grandma -- rather on anything really frightening.
I have only two quibbles: first, the maze in fun house isn't solvable. Would it have been so hard to make it a maze the child could do? And second: the objects to find are just pasted into the pictures, sometimes rather clumsily, rather than drawn in and "hidden" in clever or logical places. So you'll have a candy bag superimposed on a car door or a lollipop floating around next to a balloon. Neither of these bother my daughter at all, though -- she just enjoys paging through and finding the objects again and again, and spotting the "batty bats" flying around each page. It's not be-all and end-all of picture puzzle books, but it is a rousing good time.

I'm not sure why this book claims to be appropriate for baby-preschool ages. On the back of the book, it has a reading level 2 clearly marked on it. We even bought it from the Scholastic book forms the kids got in second grade.At any rate, this book is good for a variety of ages, which is a definite plus when you have children of different ages. Little ones can help spot the pictures. Older ones can read the story as well as spot the pictures. My family and I did this as a 'group' project. Each child would scan thru the page and try to find all the pictures first. There are 11 pictures, so the week around Halloween, we'd pull the books out and try to find all the pictures. It made the waiting time for Halloween go by and it also let them enjoy Halloween just a bit longer. John Speirs' books are a lot of fun and I highly recommend them!
