Alphabet Albcell!
Alphabet Albcell!, by Gazmend Ceno, is a children’s activity book built around the Albcell system, a puzzle format that blends letter recognition, number patterns, and coloring into one routine. The opening section walks young readers through the rules with a large sample puzzle, showing how even numbers appear in circles, odd numbers appear in diamonds, and each zone follows a one-time-only number rule. That setup gives the book a clear identity right away: it’s not just a workbook page here and there, but a full method for solving and coloring alphabet-themed puzzles.
Once the instructions are over, the pages move into a steady rhythm of puzzle spreads that alternate between simpler even-number pages, odd-number pages, and fuller mixed-number designs. The shapes inside the squares shift from page to page to form large block letters and other bold paths, so the child is always working inside a strong visual structure. That repetition feels intentional. It gives children a pattern they can settle into while still keeping the pages visually fresh.
The book also has a nice classroom-to-kitchen-table feel. It explains the puzzle logic in a friendly voice that’s easy to follow. I liked that the coloring isn’t treated as an extra decoration tossed on top. It’s part of how the activity unfolds, first around the circles, then around the diamonds, then across the full finished shape.
Visually, the book is straightforward and easy to read. The pages are clean, the number placement is large enough for young children, and the black and white layouts leave plenty of room for coloring and marking with a pencil.
Alphabet Albcell! is a structured alphabet and number puzzle book with a specific game at its center. It’s made for children who like patterns, filling things in, and turning a page of shapes and numbers into something they’ve completed with both logic and color. If you want a book that gives readers a repeatable puzzle routine with an educational slant and plenty of room for coloring, this book is easily recommended.

My Friends and I Spot Fantasyland: A Puzzle Picture Book
My Friends and I Spot Fantasyland is the kind of puzzle book that feels like story time and play time rolled into one. It follows Evan and Page through a colorful fantasy world packed with hidden objects, magical creatures, and fun little surprises on every page. What makes it especially charming is that it doesn’t just ask children to read, it invites them to look closer, explore, and really interact with the book. It has that classic hidden-object appeal, with the same kind of excitement that made those puzzle pages in kids’ magazines so memorable.
One of the things I appreciated most is how fun this book feels. The illustrations are charming, and that gives the whole adventure a warmth and personality that really works for this kind of picture puzzle book. The artwork is bright, imaginative, and full of detail, so younger readers can still enjoy the search-and-find elements without getting frustrated. I also liked that there’s a light storyline running through the book, which gives children a reason to keep turning pages instead of just treating it like a random collection of puzzles.
The digital version works perfectly too, since kids can take it anywhere and enjoy the search-and-find fun on the go. The story has a fun old-school feel that reminds me of a classic text adventure mixed with a traditional search-and-find book. There isn’t a lot of text to read, but readers will find plenty of fun in soaking up the details on each page.
My Friends and I Spot Fantasyland is a fun and imaginative puzzle picture book that is perfect for children who love spotting hidden details and exploring fantasy worlds. The real joy is in the adventure of searching through each scene and discovering all the little touches tucked into the artwork. It’s an entertaining pick for children, a great shared activity for families, and the kind of book that can easily be enjoyed in classrooms. It seems like the sort of book that could keep kids happily busy while also entertaining adults.

The Unpacking Process
Moving Magic is a charming activity book designed to make the daunting process of moving less overwhelming and more fun for kids. What was the inspiration for writing this book?
I would meet with homeowners who would be getting ready to start the process of relocating. You can see that they are stressed out and usually would tell the kids to be quiet, watch TV, and we need to meet with this man about our move. I really never see families involving kids during the move. We all know it’s stressful, but kids can be included, and moving doesn’t have to be so stressful. So, I came up with this book to help families move with kids, get them involved, and make it fun. My experience gave me the different activities that are in it.
What were some ideas that were important for you to share in this book?
The first day box.
Homeowners pack up and just label the boxes to which room they were in. A first-day box is so important in many ways. Unpacking the most important things is comforting. This box should be packed with important, sentimental items. It’s a start to the unpacking process.
What activity in the book did you have the most fun writing?
The puzzles.
I actually made them from scratch, all of them. Thinking of moving words, connecting them together and creating the hints to complete them. That was fun, mind expericing and stepping away from my daily life.
Is this the first book in the series? If so, when is the next book coming out, and what can your fans expect in the next story?
This is the only book, no series of them.
