My favorite I love, love, love these kinds of picture puzzles. I have been doing them for a long time. I do not share reviews that these puzzles are too easy. Just right for me, because I do not have the patience to spend hours on one puzzle and I don't like all the counting of tiny squares. I liked the puzzle caption the author gave to each picture, which added another puzzle element. Most of the pictures were quite clever and you could tell what they were. For the most part, the puzzle solving was well designed; such as you get stuck and figure out just one clue, which triggers a bunch more moves.
Buy Stock in Pencils I didn't like this version at all except for the 'Four-Fifths O'Ekaki' which there were only four.
The squares are too large and you can go through a whole pencil in just a few puzzles. The pictures weren't very good either. If you hold it at arms length you might, with the title, be able to figure out what it is.
Good book, but be careful I really liked this O'Ekaki. There were more puzzles than I would have liked that you had to make guesses, so that was a problem. But the completed puzzles are mostly really pretty, and so it was worth the effort of getting through those puzzles that weren't so well-constructed.
Still too easy Although this book has a few puzzles which are more difficult than the first one, it is still way too easy for anyone who has had any experience. Only for beginner-to-medium type solvers.
