The Outer Space Seek-and-Find Challenge is part of the best-selling ‘Learn by Playing’ maze picture book series by Japanese author and illustrator Gentaro Kagawa. The 12 highly detailed, beautifully illustrated, and visually accurate maze designs are filled with quizzes and hidden objects in each maze. A mysterious blue stone is found where a shooting star landed, and, when examined by scientists at the Space Center, a glowing pattern appears with a message from a distant planet. The journey to find the planet starts with blasting into space in a rocket ship named WHALE visiting different constellations, the International Space Station, solar systems, and planets, collecting magical stones along the way. Each space maze shares fun facts about the location and quizzes. When the last magic stone is found, so too is the distant planet of Nayuta where you are welcomed and learn all about this mystery planet and its people before returning home to earth. Clues are offered to help solve each maze, as well as an answer key.
