While these should be enjoyable, they mostly make me (and the 6th grader for whom the book was purchased) gnash teeth in frustration. Random "gotcha" information that isn't at all available tends to change the facts and understanding of the various mysteries---nothing that can really be reasoned out (and learning better reasoning skills was the reason for purchase).
These are super fun and get your child's brain working. Your own as well!
