The puzzles in this section are real foolers. They are not quite what they seem to be. In a sense, many of them are "trick questions." They're intended to show you that what may seem to be a difficult problem often has an easy answer. In fact, the answer may be "right under your nose."

So, here's a hint for doing these puzzles. Don't look for a complicated answer. The answer is usually very simple and is hidden in what the puzzle says. All of the mindbender puzzles are from World Book products.
