Review
"I CANNOT say enough good things about the Gritty Kids workbooks and this one is no exception. The puzzles and challenges are gratifying for use if you have a kid who needs pushed to think about things in a manner that isn't just straightforward math or reading. They have to actively process the challenges in the books to get through them properly." - Customer
"I got this book for my middle school gifted students. Looking for something that would challenge their brains. I print off 4 puzzles a week and they work on them in their free time. The first set, my hard to stump 8th graders were ready to pull out their hair. I call that a win. The challenge of it teaches kids to stick with it even when it's a hard for them, and that's a tough thing to do for kids that seem to know it all. I will admit I was skeptical about this book based on the cutesy characters on each page, but that adds to the fun of being hard to solve. The kids thought the puzzles were going to be so easy and they had to work to find the answers. One puzzle had a group of 10 arguing over the answer. That was so great to see. They spent time defending their answers naturally. If you are teaching gifted students or if you like a challenge, each page is a thinker. I was happily surprised! And I'm happy to say it will be well worth your money." - Customer
"As a teacher for gifted students, these puzzles provided much needed challenges for even the most logic savvy students. Each puzzle is a new challenge and different way of thinking. If you have students in your classroom or at home who need more than the regular curriculum, I highly recommend this book." - Customer
"This book has so many great activities for my gifted students! They enjoyed completing the activities and were able to challenge themselves. Activities included spatial reasoning, math puzzles, word puzzles, logic and focus games, and games." - Customer

Challenging but fair

- Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2025I teach gifted education in an elementary setting. The older students enjoy long-term projects but the younger students need activities to help them develop their critical thinking skills. They are more compliant about learning when the activities are fun. This book provides fun, critical thinking activities for elementary age children. Some of the activities are very challenging. My only observation that is not entirely positive is that the levels are all mixed in together so finding things for students to complete takes a little time. If you are buying this for your children, they will enjoy it but you may need to assist with some activities.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2025Our grandson,Sam, age 11, LOVES this book. After I saw this new logic book was available, I knew Sam would enjoy it, so it ended up under the tree. From his mom, “Lots of logic work going on over here!Thanks for the great gift! “.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2024Contains a wide variety of unique puzzles—literally every page offers a different challenge, which is fantastic. When my child encountered a puzzle that didn’t click with him, he simply moved on to the next one that caught his interest. Don’t let the artwork fool you, though; these puzzles are genuinely challenging. There are no “gotchas” here—it’s all about higher-level reasoning and logical thinking. In fact, many adults would find most of the puzzles challenging. Highly recommended for puzzle lovers or kids who enjoy a good challenge.

- Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2024Full disclosure: I received a copy in advance for review as a teacher.
I CANNOT say enough good things about the Gritty Kids workbooks and this one is no exception. The puzzles and challenges are gratifying for use if you have a kid who needs pushed to think about things in a manner that isn't just straightforward math or reading. They have to actively process the challenges in the books to get through them properly.
I use a variety of offerings from across the series in my gifted classroom as daily warm-ups and extra challenges.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2024This book is full of challenging and engaging activities. My groups love when I pull out one of the activities to complete.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2025I have enjoyed other books from the “Gritty” series. I don’t think that labeling this “ages 10 - 12” is ideal. Many of these are DIFFICULT, particularly since the instructions are occasionally poorly worded. By capping the age range at 12, the book becomes demoralizing for any kid older than that if they struggle to do the problems. “Age 10 and up” would make this book useful for a broader range of kids. And let’s face it - most adults would struggle to finish this book, so the lack of an upper limit wouldn’t be a problem
- Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2024I don't often leave reviews. It's usually because something has gone horribly wrong. BUT, this book is awesome, so I had to share! I got this book for my middle school gifted students. Looking for something that would challenge their brains. I print off 4 puzzles a week and they work on them in their free time. The first set, my hard to stump 8th graders were ready to pull out their hair. I call that a win.

Each puzzle is a new challenge and different way of thinking. If you have students in your classroom or at home who need more than the regular curriculum, I highly recommend this book.
