        LIKE, WHAT?Graphical Teasers for Young Readers

        by Gideon Bar Sinai

        Like many adults, children are naturally inquisitive. They easily grasp principles, find challenges, and enjoy dealing with them; but how do you encourage their curiosity? When they come upon such an original book, it is like a treasure chest of surprises: colorful, intelligent, and fascinating. This is a unique concept, primarily intended to entertain young and adult readers alike. The utilization and encouragement of their natural curiosity enhance the book's enjoyment. The entire series contains 81 multicolor graphical teasers that cover a rich and diverse world of events. Each teaser conceals a riddle, where its discovery is a challenge within itself. While attempting to decipher the mystery, the reader develops an expertise in creative and investigative thinking, as well as abstraction, spatial perception, and imagination. Author Gideon Bar-Sinai explains: “The book goes beyond stimulating the readers' curiosity and desire to investigate, confronting them with the complexity of our world. It clarifies that the world is not as simple and structured as suggest most psychometric books, which are the dogmatic, one-dimensional antithesis of Like, What?” This brilliant series expands the reader’s imagination with the colorfulness and humor invested in it; although containing but a few words, it provides the young readers – and their parents who have not yet lost their natural curiosity – with entertainment, learning, insight, and enjoyment. As a universal book without words, it transcends the barriers of age, language, and culture, and makes for an ideal gift. A sequel with 27 additional graphic teasers will be published soon. Gideon Bar-Sinai, 49, married and father of three, former pilot with a B.Sc. in computer sciences, worked for many years in software development and held senior management positions in several Hi-tech companies. Like, What? is the first volume in this original series of graphic-teaser books.

        by Gideon Bar-Sinai

        Comme, Quoi ? Casse-têtes Graphiques pour Jeunes Lecteurs par Gideon Bar-Sinai Comme beaucoup d’adultes, les enfants sont curieux de nature. Ils assimilent facilement les principes, découvrent les défis et adorent le affronter ; mais comment allez-vous encourager leur curiosité ? Lorsqu’ils trouvent un livre original de ce genre, c’est comme une mine de surprises : stimulant, intelligent et fascinant. Il s’agit d’un concept unique, destiné avant tout à distraire les lecteurs, jeunes ou adultes. L’exploitation et l’encouragement de leur curiosité naturelle accroissent le plaisir que procure le livre. L’ensemble de la série comprend 81 casse-têtes graphiques multicolores qui couvrent un univers d’événements riches et variés.

L’auteur Gideon Bar-Sinai explique : « Ce livre fait davantage que de stimuler la curiosité du lecteur et son désir de chercher, que de le confronter avec la complexité du monde où nous vivons.

        What Grows in the Park

        by Kateryna Mikhalitsyna

        This is a little story about big things like growing up in a community, appreciating similarities and differences in people around us, and discovering one's own identity in order to be happy. But it is also about learning how to recognize trees in a park and know them by their leaves, fruits and flowers — a little bit of eco-education conveyed in a very playful, fairy-tale manner. A sprout grows in a park and looks attentively at the trees around it — the birch, oak, maple, sycamore, chesnut, poplar tree, willow, and ginkgo — trying to discern its own identity by comparing itself to them, getting to know who is who, and figuring out whom it resembles. Because “happiness is having someone like you as a friend”.
