Editorial Reviews
The intricate and densely layered illustrations are perfect for readers of any age and ability, and make learning visual and collaborative.
--The Children's Book Review
This "informational text" turned seek-and-find is a ton of fun. Students are able to read about BigFoot while participating in activities that require focus and attention, attempting to spot the mysterious creature themselves. Kids among a range of ages will appreciate this text - in between classes, late at night, or on long car rides. Illustrations are exciting and colorful, with facts and information that will leave you questioning whether BigFoot is real or not.
--Maura Brown, Educator "KIPP Change Academy "
My 8-year old daughter read this book together. She loves look and find books. She was pleasantly surprised to see the facts about Big Foot and cities. She also thought the look and find pages were challenging enough, and liked that there were many different things to find. This book has some great visuals and I think it would appeal especially to boys in grades 2-5.
--Laurie Harris, Educator "Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board "
What a cool way to set up a seek and find book! I loved the opportunity to learn more about the legend of Bigfoot as well as countries the world. My kids are going to love it!
--Amber Webb, Educator "The Roeper School “
Unwrapping some illustrations for you
* Boosting Brain Function with BigFoot
Reading BigFoot has many positive benefits for your child. This Look & Find book will help foster patience and focus while further developing visual perception skills. They will not only be searching for BigFoot and his legendary footprint, but also more than 500 other unusual and unexpected people, animals, and objects. Watch their confidence soar as they find all of the hidden items!
* Fun Facts about Historical Cities
This is not your average seek & find experience. BigFoot's favorite part of adventures is learning! Discover the history behind Edinburgh Castle in Scotland, the Big Buddha in Hong Kong, and the Sydney Opera House in Australia. Two pages bursting with topical information precede each puzzle, complete with colorful photos, lively illustrations, and exciting new facts on ten of the most interesting cities in the world!
*All About BigFoot
Dive into the story behind our furry friend and explore the mysteries behind the man, the myth, the legend: BigFoot. What do people in other parts of the world call him? Inside these pages you'll learn Bigfoot's many different names, from "Ucu" in Argentina to "Waterbobbejaan" in South Africa. Read about what to look for when you're "squatching"—searching for BigFoot—so you can find him out in the wild!
Unwrapping my take
This is a seek and find book for all ages. What a delightful book and activity that will keep kids entertained and learning for hours. A perfect take-along to a cottage, on a long car or plane trip, or to enjoy on a lazy, rainy, summer's afternoon or freezing snowy day.
It is an interactive book that more than one person can get involved in at the same time which I like. It's always a thrill when the designated items are finally spotted (especially BigFoot) and I love how educational this book is also. Kids enjoy discovering new places and interesting facts about far away destinations. It includes segments on how to properly use the book, what people in other parts of he world call BigFoot, and the one I love the most... an answer key that is tucked in at the end. Trust me I was very thankful for that one. Other books in the series include:

The book is designed as a two-page visual puzzle brimming with people, creatures and activity. Not only does BigFoot make an appearance in each city but the talented author has embedded more than 500 other items for readers to hunt down and expose. This book, filled with fun facts and added pictures, makes learning about the world's most popular cities fun and engaging. I highly recommend this book.
