It was the best jig saw puzzle I have ever completed, in my 70+ years of putting pieces together. I loved the challenge of the uniquely shaped pieces. The finshed product was bright with vivid colors and realistic activity very well illustrated. I would buy many more but I can't really afford to do that. I'll look for someone who might want to exchange.

I have been doing puzzles for many year and this was by far my best experience. The shapes of the pieces added an unexpected artistic quality that I have not yet experienced in any other puzzle!! Like a good book, I was sad to finish. On a positive side, I can now find another puzzle and perhaps with even greater challenge.
