Customer Reviews
The unique step-by-step approach from Keeping Busy ensures some quality time with your loved ones that enjoyed doing puzzles before. We were sold on the large size of pieces and realistic animal images. It is a must-do activity every time our CEO, Valerie, visits her grandma at her residence.

Great puzzle with a lot of assistance elements. However, like all puzzles, it can be difficult to complete in advanced situations of loss of space-time references. But the puzzle itself is of great quality!
