Rating:  Summary: Beautiful and different Review: I took off one star because I would have liked to see the differences listed at the back of the book!!!!
Rating:  Summary: Dazzling and intricately detailed artworks are a feast for t Review: Mike Wilks previous books include The Ultimate Alphabet, which I have not had the pleasure of viewing. He is a writer/artist, although a better artist. His new book that I discovered by chance, intrigued me right away. I am the type of person who enjoys children's puzzlebooks and mythology books, especially if they are illustrated by stylistic and talented artists. The dazzling and intricately detailed artworks are a feast for the eye. And comparing the alternating pictures to find a myriad of differences was actually quite stimulating, especially on my break at work. I can't read in the staff-room because there is too much noise. But I found this book to be a perfect coffee-break companion. His artwork is magical, mystical and thought provoking. The changes in the artwork are missing objects, subtle colour changes, moving objects, changing shapes, reflections, and many others. I delighted in the chance to use my perception and reading in ways that I never had before. Mike Wilks is truly a genius, and I can't wait to go through the art stores looking for some of his work. I would love to acquire an original!
