"...even though it's only the first book the Professor has written, it's definitely his best yet..."

Regular Murderous Maths readers will already know how my appearances in the books add a vital touch of glamour and sophistication to the proceedings. But now I've decided to treat the world to a selection of my absolute dead favourite puzzles and teasers.

It's a lot better than the other books because it's BIGGER and has loads of pictures of me in it.

Are you brainy enough to try a Brainbender now?

I've split the book into three sections:

It isn't just maths stuff either. It's got logic puzzles, coin challenges, paper cutting, mazes and tricks to try on your friends. But most of all it's ... EDUCATIONAL

Well of course it is. For instance:

Did you know that if you mash up worms and slugs and boil them with washing powder it looks like sponge cake?
It gave me a great idea for a diabolical trick to play at the Fogsworth Manor tea party. Unfortunately it went a bit wrong...

Mind you, nothing tastes as revolting as what Pongo McWhiffy tries to sell from his burger bar!

I even took pity on the lesser Murderous Maths characters and let them appear occasionally. I just made sure that I didn't play cards with Riverboat Lil! Luckily she explains to us how she always wins.

You can play with a few of my pet bottigrubs.            12kv

There are even a few games you can try yourself, although I wouldn't recommend " The Poison"...

And as a special treat, I invite you into my secret network of underground tunnels, although I bet you'll never find your way out again!

TRY A BRAINBENDER NOW!

Can you get from the drain to the dustbin?

And if you think that's easy then try again...

...but this time you can only EIGHT letters!

A different Brainbender is The Coin Pyramid
