Step through the looking glass into a magical world of puzzles based on Lewis Carroll’s classic tale.
Sharpen your wit and wisdom with 80 conundrums set in Lewis Carroll's weirdly brilliant and brilliantly weird world. Carroll, an obsessive, inventive expert logician, would create elaborate "Pillow Problems" every evening. Some of these are in this collection, grouped by difficulty, so you can match your skills of deduction, reasoning, arithmetic, and creative thinking against the master's. All the familiar characters from his masterpiece appear, including the Mad Hatter with a puzzle about biscuits, the Cheshire Cat with a math quandary, and the Red Queen with a riddle to untangle—all beautifully illustrated with Sir John Tenniel’s original art.
