READ THE STORY. SOLVE THE PUZZLES. SAVE THE DAY! Puzzloonies! is a unique new series that presents kids with an engaging mix of storytelling and puzzle-solving fun. Entertaining and addictive, these books are a mashup of Brain Games for Clever Kids meets A-Z Mysteries, with a dash of Mad Libs for zany humor. Perfect for readers aged 7-11! What in the world is a "Puzzlooney"? ! It could be a whodunnit mystery, or a thrilling survival adventure, or a romp through outer space. It' s always a funny, engaging story that unfolds amid tons of related puzzles that kids must solve to advance the adventure. Each PUZZLOONIES installment is a standalone book with puzzles seeded throughout the story. From word searches and secret codes to optical illusions and brain teasers, the puzzles will keep readers hooked from page 1. Each book culminates with an Encyclopedia Brown-style "final challenge" puzzle. Designed with broad appeal, PUZZLOONIES are memorable, innovative, and consumable. Over the course of writing, decoding, cutting, and tracing, readers will destroy their books. But that' s okay--there are many more PUZZLOONIES waiting to be solved!
