Can You See What I See? Dream Machine: Picture Puzzles to Search and Solve

Purchased after visiting Walter Wick exhibit at the Norman Rockwell Museum. I was surprised and impressed by Wick’s artistry and high quality production of each artwork. The photos are produced from real life assemblages and miniature sets including found and hand made objects. As an Art educator I was blown away and inspired by the work that goes into each image WITHOUT digital enhancement! The books are beautifully produced with high quality printing, paper and binding. I hope to collect many more. I already have plans to teach lessons to my K-5 Art students inspired by the series.

this book is awesome! the seek and finds are easy enough for kids to help, but hard enough to be interesting (and even challenging) for adults. it has great party cache and will delight your drunken friends, if you have any. plus, your KIDS will love this book. it's fairly easy to read, so even a level 2 reader can read most of the words.... and with an adult's help, you kids will (WILL!) sit still for a half hour or more while they search this book. it's one of my 5 year old's all time favorites.

I disagree with the reviewer who suggests that the pictures in this book are too dark, and that this title in the Can You See What I See ? series is not good for the 2-6 age group. My five-year-old son is absolutely enthralled with the amazingly creative, futuristic cityscapes. I think this is Walter Wick's best creation to date. Just look at the intricate details that he has put into the buildings, all of which were made by hand from cardboard boxes and other easy-to-find materials. Wick's books are not just about finding hidden objects. They are also about learning how to appreciate the value of everyday stuff -- like the things we all throw away or have stashed away in our junk drawers and never think about. In this, and all of his books for that matter, Wick inspires the imagination in countless ways, as all good authors of children's books should. In addition to searching for the lost items in these magical pages, my son has spent countless hours trying to create his own cityscapes out of cereal boxes, soap boxes, and every other kind of box one would care to imagine. THIS BOOK IS EXTRAORDINARY!

Love this books even as an adult. New condition as well, sometimes they come used and some are written on

One of Walter Wick's best!

My son loves this book and has spent hours going through each page looking for the small items. This book keeps my son entertained, not only looking for the item but looking at all the pictures. It is fun to look through with him and answer all his questions about the purpose of the items on each page.

I love the series that Walter Wick came out with on his own, after collaborating on the "I Spy" books together. The "Can you see what I see?" series is spectacular. They have incredibly detailed and creative scenes. From page to page you get deeper into the picture in a way that my kids absolutely love. Great for many ages (including the parents!)

My 7 year old loves seek and find books. The "Can You See What I See" series is great. The pictures are very vivid, and have a lot to look at. It's not so challenging that he gets frustrated, but hard enough to find that he doesn't think it's a baby book. He and his dad do a couple pages each night before bed and have a great time with these. Highly recommend!

La version française étant introuvable, j'ai pris la version anglaise. Pas de souci, les enfants pour qui je l'ai acheté (5 et 6 ans) apprendront quelques mots en plus ! C'est vraiment très prenant avec les enfants. les miens ont adoré et sur la durée : même après avoir trouvé, quelques semaines après on peut y retourner tant les objets cachés sont nombreux et l'observation riche. À alterner avec les autres tomes de la série (je trouve que celui-ci est le meilleur personnellement !) Brillant et plein de belles choses. Et j'imagine très bon pour le développement de l'observation chez les enfants.

Davvero strepitoso questo libro! Foto fantastiche, ben definite...un vero rompicapo, che ci segue ovunque. I miei bambini lo adorano! Imperdibile...

This was bought for my son but I am having a great deal of fun solving the puzzles too. Excellent for long rides in the car and even for playing with someone else. Jammed with amazing detail and the quality of the book is excellent. I recommend!!!

Rather Rare; Sealed in plastic transparent bag // smells really “brad new book 📕 smell” ✨Very pleasant for Gifts Children are very much “in to it !!!”

Great book, my lil cousin will love it. The front cover design of the book is updated from the one shown, with a more shiny reflective blue and slimmer frame.
