Publisher's Description of Around the World Mazes (Usborne)
Discover new places around the world with this whimsical maze book!
These maze books contain full color designs, lots of challenges and, truth be told, they are just lovely to look at. Sometimes these mazes follow a traditional format, following a lined path. Sometimes mazes use negative space or follow outlines of shapes. Answers are shown small scale in the back. Individual volumes are softcover and 64 pages. The Very Big Maze (128 pp, sc) book contains over 100 mazes and combines the mazes from the Second and Third books into one volume. ~ Ruth
