Dot's Entertainment!

I never outgrew my love of doing dot-to-dot puzzles, but I did outgrow the simple dot-to-dot books which are aimed at young children and seemingly were the only ones being made. So it was with great excitement that I came across David Kalvitis's excellent book on Amazon. This is what I have long been hoping to find: a dot-to-dot book that is actually enjoyable (and challenging) for adults!

The puzzles in this book, unlike the kiddie dot-to-dot puzzles of the past, have several adult-worthy features:

1.) The solution to most of the puzzles isn't immediately obvious. You won't be connecting 25 dots to complete a kite or a ball in this book! Instead, puzzles can include 200 to 300 (or more!) dots, in which many have to be connected in order to reveal what the final image might be.

2.) The act of simply connecting the dots is often a challenge! Many dots are spaced far apart and require long, straight lines zigzagging all around the page, which isn't as easy as it might seem. Your arm will get tired, but you will also get a nice sense of satisfaction after completing the more elaborate puzzles.

3.) Kalvitis includes several variations, including puzzles where you must connect several subsets of dots, puzzles where you start and stop your line, "fields of dots," and even dotless puzzles. This prevents monotony from ever setting in (along with the variety in the pictures themselves).

Older children would probably enjoy this book too, but the difficulty level would most likely frustrate younger kids. That's OK though... as I've already noted, there are plenty of simple dot-to-dot books already available for them. For everyone else, I highly recommend this one!

Excellant Book

My 8 year old son loves dot to dots, but seems to have outgrown most of the activity books that I usually find. He just wants the dot to dots, not the mazes, coloring, and word puzzles that he usually gets mixed in. This book had some really fun pictures. I had no idea what most of them were going to be until he was almost done. He could not put the book down!! I will most definately buy more books like this one.

My daughter loves it!

I bought this book for my 10 year old daughter and she really likes it. Right now she is into mazes and dot-to-dots and she is enjoying this book.

Challenging and Fun!!

My son absolutely loves this dot to dot book! He loves guessing what the picture is before he starts connecting dots, revising his guess as he works, and then seeing what the end result is. The # of dots on each page range from a low of 49 to a high 274, so your child does need good counting skills.

This is an excellent book that is always in our "Wait Bag" (a bag I keep for Drs. visits, etcetera).
