Optical illusions trick your mind and confound your perception, and that's why these images--including three-dimensional mazes--will drive you crazy in the best of ways. Stare at a circular checkerboard closely; it will seem to pulsate and shimmer. And do those black-and-white patches actually link up to form the petals of a flower? Determine which twin brother has a bigger appetite by glancing at a drawing of both. (These guys don't look the same...or do they?) The only thing that won't be an illusion is the fun you're having.

Are you ready to say "Knock-knock" nearly a thousand times? Then here's a collection to last you a lifetime, or until you've driven your parents and friends crazy, whichever comes first. This is the biggest knock-knock treasury you'll ever find. Since it's an encyclopedia, you start with A: Knock-Knock. Who's there? Abby and Manny. Abby and Manny who? Abby birthday and Manny happy returns. And you end with Z: Knock-knock. Who's there? Zombies. Zombies who? Zombies make honey, zombies don't. While you fill the neighborhood with laughs (and groans), you'll also enjoy dozens of zany cartoon drawings that show just how ridiculous a knock-knock joke can be. Ready? You know how they're supposed to start, so here are the endings, and you supply what comes before: Adam up and send me the bill. Candidate be changed to Friday? Ferdinand is worth two in the bush. Ice pick for the people of this country. Kansas really be happening to me? Mary Lee we roll along. Noah good place to eat around here? Oliver the world people are telling knock-knock jokes. What you see is not always what you get! Imagine bats and birds that look like faces! Macabre skulls that appear on anything white! 3 donkeys with only 3 ears between them! And walls that disappear! You no longer have to imagine, once you've entered the world of optical illusions, where nothing is as it seems and first impressions are just that -- impressions, not the truth! Examine drawings, some of them from designs thousands of years old that fool the eye into believing a flat surface is three-dimensional or that coils are rolling from left to right across the page, and simple sentences sure to slip you up -- plus more. Find out about closure, lines of perspective, "the Rubin Vase," and how these tools and techniques can help untangle the fascinating tricks found in this mind-bending volume. After making your way through, try and create some puzzling pictures all your own.
