Jess (glitternlitter) | 3 comments The book was for KIDS and came from educational stores.
The book had multiple stories through out it. You were asked a question, or made to solve a riddle or problem before moving to the next page. You did not always read the pages in order The book was big and thick.
one story contained a "murder/poisoning" plot, with funny characters and a squeaky tea cart. Figuring out the tea biscuits was one of the mysteries.
One mystery was figuring out a big room and which door to go through (If I remember correctly).
The book was roughly trade paperback sided 2-3 inches thick
came out roughly late nineties and was gifted to me by an aunt who home schooled in Canada.

Great! Glad you found your book, Jess.

The Usborne Puzzle Adventures series starts with Escape from the Blood Castle (book 1). (Note: We shelve the first book in a series.)
