Korky Paul is a great artist and his pictures in the normal Winnie the Witch books are great as their funny details really add to the enjoyment of the stories. However here the double spread pictures don't work as well. First there are only 12 of them. Second, they are not that detailed as to make finding the items mentioned difficult to find. The busy picture on the front is misleading as most of the images aren't as busy as that, and that isn't even one of the 12 images anyway so you aren't asked to find any items within it. Lastly once the items have been found by your child the first time then they will easily be able to find them again, putting the claim on the front "endless hours of happy hunting" to shame.
When getting this I thought it would be like the Where's Wally series but it isn't a patch on those in my opinion.
(I got this book through Amazon Vine. It is listed HERE.)
