The Potato Chip Puzzles: The Puzzling World of Winston Breen
When a local potato chip tycoon invites area kids to an all-day puzzle hunt, Winston Breen is psyched. But it turns out the day is not all fun and games. Their teacher is being overly competitive, the puzzles are hard (even for Winston), and someone in the contest is playing dirty in order to win the fifty-thousand-dollar grand prize!
Rather than simply being an accompaniment to the show, this is a largely standalone kids magazine featuring all the rotten (and all the good!) bits of history – executions, gladiator battles, Vikings and the like. Whilst it does reference the TV series, it is also packed with humour, fascinating facts, activities such as colouring in and more, and is illustrated throughout by the wonderful and colourful art associated with Horrible Histories. Educating, entertaining and a little bit gruesome – in other words, perfect for kids.
