StrawberryShorty  | 4 comments This might be a hard one, because it wasn't the kind of book that really had a plot or anything, and it's been decades since I read it.

-I'm not sure this book had a list of things to find, like your typical hidden object took. The only thing I remember for sure is that there was one special story item you had to find. One I strongly recall is a green bottle with a brown label. I think spotted mushrooms was another one.

-The book was thin, and not hardcover. Its pagers weren't papery like most novels and kids books, either. They were smoother, if that makes any sense.

-The pages were all in color, and mostly consisted of art. I remember the drawings as being slightly cartoonish, but not in like a kids way. Think like something out of a graphic novel. I think the pictures were mostly two pages, with there being a white panel on the far left that told some kind of story. Scenes I remember were a cluttered valley and a cluttered castle kitchen. I think one of these scenes was on the cover - the kitchen one, I think.

-Scenarios I vaguely remember, were stuff like someone looking for mushrooms to cure her sick father, and you having to locate those mushrooms. Or like, someone being accused of stealing something, and you had to spot the thing they were accused of stealing hidden in the picture. It was really hard.

Syberiawinx, that's a good start. We need more information in the header/topic title (e.g., what type of objects, main character, plot, "slightly cartoonish"). Many members only read the headers. We have thousands of book requests.

Copy more plot details from your message #1 to the header. Click the small "edit" link after the header. This only works on the full Desktop website - not the Mobile website or app. (On the Mobile website, there's a "Desktop version" link at the bottom of the page.)
