Excellent interactive book that will encourage creativity in small children. I think it is very important to start children off early looking for patterns. So much of what you do as an adult is based on being able to see patterns and make a judgement as to what the patterns tell you about what to do next. Books like this are a good way to start the process off.

Juego de encontrar diferencias. Comparado con otros del autor lo veo simplón.

Each of these six little board books from Phaidon encourages a kid to interact with the book in a specific way. The Game of Light features patterned die-cut pages to shine a flashlight through and experiment with light and shadow. The Game of Patterns requires observation and concentration as the reader looks for the differences between very similar - but not identical - facing pages. The Game of Let's Go! combines a fuzzy green flocked line with die-cut shapes to create a book that is beautiful even with your eyes shut. A variety of learners can enjoy the colors, patterns, and tactile qualities of these books.

"The Game of Patterns" by Hervé Tullet: A bright, interactive game of spot the difference. Encourages young readers to find patterns in the drawings and to identify differences within each pattern.

Tullet is one of the world's most innovative book makers. He is known in France as 'the Prince of preschool books' because he takes the concept of reading to a new level, teaching young minds to think imaginatively, independently and creatively.

If you read my reviews, you know I love interactive books for story time and reading with family. This book is no exception to that, and I recommend it for anyone who also enjoys interactivity, and Mr. Tullet's books. Fun and engaging!

This is a book that children can talk about with each other. It's not a book for reading! but still fun.

[Stacey Mulholland]

My kids just don't get into these books.

This board book will engage children to find differences and similarities in shapes, colors, and designs.

This is a children’s pattern recognition book that I read at a museum in Wellington focused on Toi Art. It did not strike me as good for that, but maybe it is!

[Melissa Swistek · Rating 1 out of 5]

Not a real game imho

[Jessie · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a "find the differences" book, not really a patterns book in any way. But there is lots to see and look for here!

[Amanda Harrison · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book has no words just creative find and seek pictures. I'm not a huge fan of this genre myself, but it might be a good recommendation for students stuck in the I Spy world.
