Murdle Jr.: Curious Crimes for Curious Minds: Solve Your Way Through 40 Puzzle Mysteries! (Murdle Jr., 1)

My 11-year-old son is a huge fan of the original Murdle puzzle books, enjoying both the challenge and the humor. When I saw Murdle Jr., I knew we had to give it a try, and I'm so glad we did! This book hits the sweet spot perfectly for its target audience.He dove right into "Curious Crimes for Curious Minds" and was instantly hooked. The puzzles retain the clever deductive reasoning core of the original Murdle, but are definitely geared appropriately for younger solvers. He found the difficulty level to be "just right" – challenging enough to make him think, but not so hard that he got frustrated. He loves the whole Murdle concept, and this junior version delivered that same fun experience.He was so engaged that he worked his way through the entire book in just a couple of days! For us, that's always a sign of a great puzzle book. It held his attention, provided a satisfying sense of accomplishment with each solved case, and kept him entertained screen-free.If you have a child around 10-12 years old who enjoys logic puzzles, mysteries, or is perhaps curious about the main Murdle books but finds them a bit daunting, Murdle Jr. is an absolutely fantastic introduction. It captures the spirit of the original while being perfectly accessible. Highly recommended!

The Murdle Youth puzzle book is a bit tricky for my 8-year-old, but with a little help from an adult, it turns into a really fun and engaging activity. It’s great for building problem-solving skills and thinking outside the box. A good choice for kids who enjoy a challenge and some quality time together!

Bought this book for my kid to entertain themself and expand their mind. It has done that and more. I like that my kid will go to this book when they don’t have anything to do. It’s been a great activity for them to challenge their mind and try to solve the problems. It’s a win win for me and my child. I would totally recommend this to any parent and kids.

This was a great gift for my 9 year old who likes to help me with my Murdles. they are simple enough for logic problem beginners. We had fun doing them together!

My kids love to sit next to me and work on their Murdle Jr. while I work on my Murdle. Its been a fun activity that we can do together. While I love video games, it's nice to take a break and engage in other ways.

My children loved this book, they sat on the porch and completed the puzzles.

I bought this for my 11-year-old grandson, and he devoured it in one night. He's a curious boy, and I expected this would pique his imagination. I will buy him any subsequent books in this series.

Purchased this for my 10-yr old son who saw it at a friend's house. He loves logic puzzles, mysteries, etc. He's really enjoyed going through the book and wants to use the regular Murdle once he gets a little older. Would purchase another version if they have it because he's enjoyed it so much.
