Beastly puzzles: a brain-boggling animal guessing game
(Book)
1 copy on order.
Description
"Bamboozling clues need a curious mind to piece together thirteen different animals. The animals in question are easily recognizable: ostrich, polar bear, snail, puffer fish, albatross, sloth, lobster, bullfrog, kangaroo and giraffe. But the clues are not what you'd expect (e.g. "3 billiard balls," "egg cozies," "an extra leg," "chainsaw," "dinosaur feet," "a speedometer," "poison to kill 30 humans"). The clues are wryly illustrated in scenarios unrelated to the animals-for example, the ostrich is composed from items in a "gentleman's den"; the albatross is pieced together from stored items in a jumbled attic. For each animal, a gatefold opens to reveal the animal in the room, with each clue explained, along with other fascinating information about the animal."--
