Masquerade by Kit Williams*

Whoa!  This book will make your brain hurt!
Author Jennifer Chambliss Bertman mentions this book in her book Book Scavenger which I recently reviewed.  So, of course, I had to read it for myself!
This picture book contains a story but also has several riddles on each page for the reader to solve.  The simplest riddle is trying to find the hidden hare in each painting.  The word riddles and word-making riddles are quite challenging.
Mr. Williams actually hid a real jewel and hid clues to its location in the illustrations and the riddles' answers.
A person did find the jewel but was later found out to have cheated.
If this book and its riddles intrigue you, here is a link with its solutions-
