About This Book

Highlights continues the Write-On Wipe-Off series with two new books featuring favorite puzzles designed to be enjoyed over and over again. In Spot the Differences, kids hunt for differences between two illustrations, then draw in the differences to make the pictures match. Specially created companion activities include trace-and-write, imagine-and-draw, word searches, decorate the picture, and more. The reusable tray on the cover makes a convenient, permanent home for the marker.

Our Review

This interactive activity book transforms classic visual puzzles into hands-on learning experiences with its reusable write-on, wipe-off format. Young readers can hunt for differences between two illustrations, then actively complete the scene by drawing in the missing elements, turning observation into action. The book extends the fun beyond spotting differences with companion activities like trace-and-write exercises, creative imagine-and-draw prompts, and engaging word searches. A convenient storage tray built into the cover keeps the dry-erase marker securely attached, making this an ideal travel companion or quick-grab activity.

What sets this collection apart is its clever blend of skill-building disguised as pure entertainment, strengthening visual discrimination, fine motor control, and early writing readiness. Children who enjoy seek-and-find challenges or who benefit from kinesthetic learning will find endless replay value in these thoughtfully designed pages. The sturdy, self-contained format empowers independent play while providing a satisfying sense of accomplishment with each completed puzzle. It’s the kind of engaging resource that makes practicing essential cognitive skills feel like a reward in itself.
