part in some of the most daring, courageous escapes of the twentieth century. You will need to muster your determination, keep your wits about you, and focus on small details in order to complete more than 20 challenging mazes. Forget the boring labyrinths of puzzle books and cereal boxes, these intricate adventures are drawn with striking detail and are all based on historic events. Put yourself in these death-defying situations: * Find your way off the sinking Titanic onto the iceberg. * Descend ropes to escape the burning Hindenburg. * Find a clear tunnel passage to help Allied soldiers break out of the German prisoner-of-war camp Stalag Luft III. * Help the Dalai Lama avoid capture by Chinese communist troops. * Guide the crew of the Apollo 13 moon mission back to earth. * Determine whether it was possible to escape from the prison on Alcatraz Island in San Francisco Bay. As you wend your way from disaster and doom to safety and freedom, you will learn what the real people faced with these situations had to overcome, from rocky terrain, strong ocean currents, and the forces of nature to invading armies, impenetrable fences, and exploding torpedoes. Of course, unlike the historic adventurers, you will have the solutions to the mazes at your fingertips at the back of the book. 64 pages, 58 b/w illus., 8 1/4 x 11.

Pirates ahoy--with a treasure chest filled with mazes! Master maze-maker Roger Moreau has come up with another fun, ingenious collection. He’s taking kids back in time to the heyday of the great pirates and on a hunt for buried treasure. Every challenge will lead pencil-wielding youngsters closer to their goal...and the riches. First they have to find a special map and key in the Map Room. Then they have to locate a clear path to Skull Island. And that’s just the beginning, because there are still more than 20 mazes to go! It’s an exciting trip, with battles galore, a hike up a mountain, and a trek through a volcano.

Fifty amazing mazes, each one completely different from the one before. With extra puzzles to solve and challenges to complete en route, encouraging children to develop their problem-solving and visual recognition skills.

From the elephants of Africa to the penguins of Antarctica, children will delight in this colorful, maze-filled journey around the world. The wild trip is courtesy of Roger Moreau, creator of the popular Dinosaur Escape Mazes (60,000 copies sold) and Wizard Magic Mazes (70,000 copies). Start the safari in Nairobi, where-- if you can find your way climbing up vines, running over rough trails, and crossing rivers -- dozens of creatures will greet you, including an endangered Black Rhino. From there, head to Asia and search for a clear path through the bamboo to reach the pandas. Then, it's on to South and North America, and finally to the Arctic where polar bears play and solvers have to go slip-sliding safely across blocks of ice.

Roger Moreau, the maze master who created such popular collections as Dinosaur Escape Mazes and History Mystery Mazes, is going buggy! Every one of these puzzles features creepy-crawly creatures such as dragonflies, centipedes, and tarantulas. Kids will have to take their pencils and find a way to reach them, avoid them, and take them where they want to go. Clear a path past the scrap wood munched and crunched by termites. Move from flower to flower in order to save the ladybug from a hungry praying mantis. Work up the courage to go up close to the black widow spider while keeping well away from her babies. There are 28 mazes in all, including a bonus one on the cover.

Ten incredible mazes combine with a space adventure to provide a stellar game book for every puzzle-solving kid! Comics artist Loïc Méhée, who created the fantastic pop-up seek-and-find book The Great Escape, has come up with yet another impressive display of well-constructed, intricate mazes, and a thrilling space story involving Reducto, a supervillain who snacks on planets! It's up to the reader to help intergalactic detectives Celeste and Neutrino stop him . . . before it's too late! The mazes will entertain and challenge kids' brains while improving their problem-solving and visual-perception skills. It's a mind-bending must-have for hours of engaging play!

This is not really a book. This is a building in the shape of a book...a maze. Each numbered page depicts a room in the maze. Tempted? Test your wits against mine. I guarantee that my maze will challenge you to think in ways you've never thought before. But beware. One wrong turn and you may never escape!
