This book is only 50 pages long. There are only 18 puzzles, since there is a riddle on one page and the corresponding picture on the adjacent page. These were fun, so I wish there had been more pages.
The idea is very neat, as all 18 tangrams are animals. Looking at the picture and reading the riddle, you try to guess the animal. The main puzzle is to make the tangram from the 7 basic shapes. All of the puzzles have answers at the back, that clearly show how each animal was made and which animal it is.
All of the tangram animals look pretty cool. They are also a good challenge of visual skills to try to make these tangrams.
This book is mainly a tangram book, but partly a riddle book and partly a coloring book, too. Each tangram can be colored.
This is just a book, it didn't come with any shapes. But tangram puzzles are easy to find, and if you have one or buy one, these are good puzzles to use it with. This book also shows you how to make your own tangram pieces without buying the puzzle. You can copy the cut-out tangram square of the book onto cardboard, then cut out the pieces, for example.
