Checkmutt Book 2
A logic puzzle. A mystery. And a sneaky way to learn how chess pieces move.
Someone has been stealing cookies-and it's up to young detectives to crack the case
In CHECKMUTT: The Cookie Caper, kids solve 70 visual logic puzzles using a cast of animal witnesses inspired by the movement of chess pieces.
The Mutt sees like a king.
The Cat sees like a rook.
The Owl sees like a bishop.
The Frog sees like a knight.
The Chick sees like a pawn.
And the Queen Bee sees like a queen.
Each witness gives the young detective information about what it can see on the puzzle board. Kids use those clues to figure out where the sneaky bandits are hiding.
As the puzzles progress, children naturally begin recognizing the movement patterns behind chess pieces-while practicing deduction, spatial reasoning, pattern recognition, concentration, and problem-solving.
Inside you'll find:
- 70 progressively challenging logic puzzles
- Simple rules kids can learn quickly
- Cute animal characters
- Visual deduction instead of complicated instructions
- Chess-inspired movement patterns
- Screen-free brain play
- Solutions for every puzzle
Perfect for quiet time, travel, classrooms, rainy days, or any kid who loves puzzles, mysteries, animals, or chess.
Can you solve the clues and catch the cookie thieves?
