Fab for kids, and great for team building too! - By: R. Robinson, 29 Jul 2007 
Brilliant concept, thought provoking . . . .can you spot the one error though with the taxi?!! I love it, in fact so much I am now using it for team building & communication skills events.
Cool! Unique! Fun for all ages - By: , 03 Sep 1999 
What a unique, thought provoking book. Just shows what you see is not "as it appears". LOVED IT! Giving it to everyone I know at Christmas.
You never know what your going to get! - By: , 16 Apr 1999 
My friend recently brought this book to school. She got it off of here. I loved it! Your always wondering what you'll find next. This book is definitley a "page turner" & thats what people like the best.
P.S. I'm 13 & I loved it so take away that 6-8 age limit because your losing ALOT of customers!
A wonderful book for ALL ages! - By: , 14 Oct 1998 
Although I am a professional writer, my review isn't nearly as technical as the previous two readers'. This, quite simply, is a FUN BOOK! My four month old daughter enjoys the bright images on each page & adults love the zoom concept! It keeps you guessing & reminds you to look at the bigger picture in life... perhaps reminding you that you're not in the world alll on your own. Add this to your bookshelf & then pick up an extra copy as sometimes it is not easy to find & you'll surely want to give one as a gift!
a postmodern pictorial excursion - By: , 24 Jul 1998 
I must disagree with the statement that this book is for children ages 6-8 since much of what Banyai does is well beyond what most children will understand. Banyai's virtual elimination of a fixed frame of reference pulls at the mind in a way that few books aimed at adults do--one simply never is quite sure what is going on. Not only is everything part of something larger (until the end when the earth becomes a period or a hole in the darkness), but there are a few subtle plays on the element of static versus moving & time versus non-time which invite considerable thought.
This book plays on certain postmodern ideas & can be thought of as a very complex exploration of perception & semiosis. These topics are far from typical in "children's literature" & this book will provoke more thought than most popular serious novels will.
Reallly quite an excellent book!
