Prepare to be astounded, because these are no ordinary mazes! Welcome to Mazeways, where A is for Airport, B is for Boatyard, C is for Circus, and everything is exciting. In this eye-opening world, each letter in the alphabet transforms into a fantastic maze and fingers have to trace a path through fantastically detailed environments. Navigate these puzzles as you would if you were traveling in real life: drive your car on the right side of the road, cross the street only at the crosswalks, and feel free to walk around furniture or landmarks as long as nothing blocks your path. Each maze comes with directions on how to launch into the adventure, and features really cool things to find and guide you along the way—like crocodiles and seals, clown cars and motorcycles, baseball diamonds and sunken treasure, and more!

From the Author:
I loved working on this book - real life mazes. The concept came when I was asked, along with other children's book illustrators, to create an alphabet letter for the CBC-ALA Auction for Literacy. I immediately got an idea - a maze based upon a twin-peaked mountain - a Mountain Maze (I had done three maze books prior to this). As soon as I executed the maze, I wanted to do a book of real life mazes based upon the letters of the alphabet. I was completing another project at the time, but every night, on the #6 subway on the way home from my studio, I'd work on drawings for a letter (I carried a little clipboard with paper) - maybe the H for Highway or the J for Jungle or the P for Parking lot. Real life is full of mazes, if you think about it.....
