Pierre The Maze Detective: The Search for the stolen maze stone by Hiro Kamigaki & IC4DESIGN

Publisher:  Laurence King Publishing 
Release Date: September 1st 2015
Pages: 36
Received from PR Company for review

Pierre The Maze Detective is somewhat the Japanese answer to Where's Wally? The dazzling illustrated book features 15 full-spread illustrations of intricate, magical mazes. in wich you have to help maze detective Pierre to find the Maze Stone, which was stolen by Mr.X. The stone has the power to turn the whole town of Opera City into a maze, which he has to prevent ofcourse. The reader can do this with finding hidden objects (stars, red thropy awards, green treasure chests) in the illustrations through a special route in it.


The illustrations are truly pieces of art, and it makes you wonder how much time it took the illustraters to create them. There are so many objects, colors and there is so much going on in every illustration, it's almost dazzling and I advice not to look (and search)longer then half an hour, otherwise your brains start to spin around a littlebit. The search for the hidden objects get's a littlebit more difficult in every drawing, and in every  new drawing there are more objects and clues hidden, so it is quite a challenge to solve them all. This is a book that readers of many ages from 3 till 100 will love as this kind of books never get old. I tried two solve two illustrations in the book and it was so much fun to do, and it also sparked the interest of my family members who wanted to try it out. Recommend it!!
