Originally Published in France, this fun book will captivate puzzle lovers of all ages. Your job is to assemble each detachable, precut geometric solid and then wander through the three-dimensional maze that zigzags across the face of the puzzle. The puzzles are easy to assemble with a glue stick or regular glue (no superglue, please). The cube is fraught with threatening encounters while you help the knight free the princess. With the tetrahedron, you have to decide which route Theseus must take to fight the Minotaur. In the pyramid you journey through passageways seeking the funerary chamber containing the sarcophagus of the pharaoh. The Mobius strip is always entertaining and never ending. Deadly sea monsters and pirates await you in the icosahedron as you sail to Treasure Island. In the octahedron, the cosmonaut has to get into the air lock inside the satellite. And in the dodecahedron, you must travel from Earth to Moon without being hit by Halley's Comet or straying into the outer limits of the solar system. The seven solids are the cube, tetrahedron, icosahedron, octahedron, dodecahedron (otherwise known as platonic bodies, the five regular polyhedrons described by Plato), pyramid, and Mobius strip. Sure to entertain you and your kids, these puzzles are a welcome respite from the chores of the real world.
