Travel with Alice down the rabbit hole into the fantastic world of Wonderland, and help a cast of extraordinary characters solve these tantalising puzzles and enigmas. Lewis Carroll, the author of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, was a huge fan of puzzles and was said to have invented the word ladder. In this book you can deduce the card hand of Tweedledee, decide which bottle contains the growing potion and calculate the White Queen's position on a chess board. Each of these puzzles is set within a short adventure of Alice's and accompanied by the original pen-and-ink illustrations by Sir John Tenniel. This collection includes: • Rebus puzzles • Word ladders • Lateral-thinking • Zigzag puzzles

Created by an art director at the Puzzles.COM website, these phenomenal original brainbusters-more than 200 of them-will stimulate your potential for thinking outside the box. Arranged from easiest to hardest, they're especially devised for mind-expanding visual solving. And all it takes to crack their mysteries are a pencil, an eraser, patience, and, of course, boundless imagination! Arrange a hinged chain of 11 squares of different sizes into one large square-without overlapping them. Play two-hole billiards on the page, sending two balls into their respective pockets in just two strokes. Figure out how eight patterned cars fit into a checkered parking lot so their colors match the background exactly. Floor plans, tangrams, matchstick puzzles: the variety is amazing.
