About The Book
I Spy and Where’s Waldo? get a revolutionary twist in this “fun, eye-opening” (Booklist) young readers edition on how to fully engage your brain to think critically and creatively.
What would you say if I told you that looking at art could give you the confidence you need to speak up in class? Or that learning the history of donuts could help you think like a super spy and train like the CIA?

With three simple steps (1) How to SEE, (2) How to THINK about what you see, and (3) How to TALK about what you see, readers learn how to think critically and creatively, a skill that only requires you to open your eyes and actively engage your brain.
