Easy to understand!
It seems pretty straightforward. My 8 year old nephew will probably be able to solve a cube pretty soon.

Very kid friendly
This book is very informative in a fun way that the kids, understood and peeked their interest into solving the rubix cube.

Not very helpful
Still to difficult for a child to understand. My daughter looked at once and never opened it again.

A few parts are confusing. Errors in text near the end.
The book is bright, colorful, and has a positive message. The instructions are quite text-heavy, and require critical reading skills. A few more diagrams would have been useful.Unfortunately, there are critical errors in both algorithms shown on page 46. The diagrams do not match the text instructions, and thus the puzzle cannot be solved with this book. Since this is the final stage of solving the cube, a mistake sends the reader all the way to the beginning.As there is no author listed on the book nor link for the publisher (outside of advertising QR codes), there is no way to communicate to the author these mistakes. For that reason, I cannot give this book more than 1 star.

Not the best security blanket
My 9 yo said it was dificult to understand. I tried to read it and it was nearly impenetrable. He stuck with it enough to get the bottom layer solved. By that time it was too late and he had caught the bug. If he had really pressed on with it, this book might have gotten him to the solution in about a month. But we looked at the Rubik's site and found a PDF for download there which was clearer in both explanation and illustration and $0 to download. As this was an effort directed toward kids (the cheesy "turn my top" POV of the cube itself was absolutely grating), I have to give it a star. And because it gave him the confidence to get started on learning (rather than just guessing or flailing), I give it another star. But I can't recommend it.

Great book! It really works! You can solve a Rubik's Cube too!
I bought this book for my kids and I to learn how to solve a Rubik's Cube. One of my son's studied it and practiced for a couple of weeks. He was able to solve a Rubik's Cube in about 10 minutes. He was even able to figure out a correction in the book. When I tried it, I was able to solve it in about 15-20 minutes the first time around. Absolutely love this book! Highly recommend if you want to learn how to solve a Rubik's Cube.

Cute book for the tiny Rubik afficionados
This book is easy to read for kids and makes solving a cube really accessible. I've been into cubes but had no real way to approach my nephew about it without making it sound difficult so got him this book and a cube for Christmas. He loved it and is now almost to the point he can solve a whole cube by himself after only a couple of weeks.

Difficult to understand
The phrasing makes it difficult to understand the specifics of each step. It’s a bit too vague to actually help. But that’s just my opinion. I got it for my 10 year old and we both couldn’t follow it easily. It’s also written in a corny way that is not very helpful. YouTube videos or a Rubik’s cube solving app might be better for those who struggle with this book.
