The Eleventh Hour

This is not just a simple picture book.  Every illustration is crammed full of hidden clues and secret codes that you will have to decipher in order to solve the mystery.  I got this book for my eleventh birthday and every night, my family would read one page and scour it for clues.  We had to work together to solve all the puzzles.

For Horace the elephant's birthday he invites all of his friends to a birthday party! But there is a mystery to be solved when they discover that someone has eaten the birthday food! Rhyming text and instructions will help you discover who did it!  But you have to keep your wits about you as the clues are devious and misleading.

All the answers are written in the back of the book but NO PEEKING until you've solved the mystery yourself.  That would be cheating.
