Editorial Reviews

K-Gr 3-The creator of Can You See What I See? Picture Puzzles to Search and Solve (2002) and Can You See What I See? Dream Machine (2003, both Scholastic) is back with another photographic adventure. This time, the focus is on collections, and the 12 picture puzzles feature intriguing assortments of buttons, plastic dinosaurs, nature's autumn contributions, stuffed animals, wooden blocks, and the contents of a junk drawer. The same beaded toy figure from the other titles is also concealed in each scene. As a wordsmith, Wick offers pleasing rhymes that clearly direct readers to retrieve a requisite number of objects. Once again, his photography engages, even mesmerizes viewers, though these scenarios appear a tad less complex and less tricky to solve than those found in the former volumes. The theme of collections is bound to be popular and has a classroom application for lessons dealing with sifting and sorting. An author's note unveils some of the book's mysteries and may encourage readers to create their own games and mazes with everyday items.-Gloria Koster, West School, New Canaan, CT Copyright 2004 Reed Business Information.
