 Really a lot of fun, 2007-12-10
No, it's not a guide book, it's an imaginative interactive puzzle book/contest and a lot of fun for kids. My 10 year old loved this book and it "tricked" him into keeping a "journal". Many years from now he'll enjoy reading some of his thoughts and even sketches from his first (and assuredly not his last) trip to Florence. It's fun for parents, too, and provokes a lot of interesting discussions. We highly recommend this book.

 This is a book?, 2007-09-02
Loved the look of the cover, but receiving this very teeny, spiral bound, mostly blank (for kids to fill) micro notebook was a huge dissapointment. It's not a guide book, but a few scant notes and little else. It just didn't deliver. I now see that the 5-star rating for this book was given by the author!!

great little book to motivate kids and avoid boredom!, 2007-08-06
We haven't used this treasure hunt book yet, but I know my kids will have fun with it. They have looked through it and can't wait to start the search. It says to do the hunt as a team, but my two are excited to challenge each other for points- we'll see how it goes. The writing is witty and is enough to keep them entertained- it looks challenging for some questions, but there are some things that are just about seeing and observing. The best thing about this book is that the places they have you stopping are places we are actually going to. Some activities are for example, taking a ride in a gondola or traghetto, getting your photo taken in front of the Grand Canal (great to encourage the photos they always hate to let me take), and sitting in one of the cafes on Piazza San Marco- ordering an espresso and taking a sip, describe the taste. The last one alone is enough for me to buy the book- I am guaranteed an espresso at a table!! There are also a few questions for parents along the way too. I will give them the history along the way, but this book will help to keep them moving and give them something to look forward to at each new site along the way. I think it's a great idea- wish I had thought of it!

Some kids might like this , 2007-07-05
I like the pocket size of this book, plenty of room for children to write, too. There just isn't much to it. I like some of the open ended questions and think others are too broad. The use of space is odd in some places. It makes sense that there is room for kids to write and draw, but a blank page follows things like a simple yes/no question. The little game is engaging. In the end, this is a small work, small game. Some kids might like it. Take a look at this one: Kids Europe Italy Discovery Journal
