What's inside

  • 400+ sudoku puzzles, weighted towards the full-size 9×9 grid
  • 234 classic 9×9 puzzles — the same grid adults solve
  • 108 6×6 puzzles and 60 4×4 puzzles for warming up or building speed
  • Easy, medium and hard runs within every grid size, so the book keeps getting harder
  • Full answer key at the back, numbered to match
  • Large 8.5 × 11 pages, 109 pages in total

By eight, most children can handle a full 9×9 grid, and this book is built on that assumption — more than half its puzzles are full size, and the hard 9×9 section is genuinely hard rather than nominally so. The smaller grids are still there, but as a warm-up rather than the main event. It is the edition to buy when a child has finished a beginner sudoku book and found it too easy.

Why parents choose this book

It does not run out

400+ puzzles with a rising difficulty curve, so a child who takes to it is occupied for months.

Real difficulty, not padded

The hard 9×9 puzzles need candidate marking. A twelve-year-old will not clear them on autopilot.

Entirely independent

Clear instructions and an answer key mean no adult has to be involved at any point.

Good to know

  • Trim size 8.5 × 11 inches, 109 pages, paperback
  • Most of the book is full 9×9 sudoku — buy the ages 6-8 edition if that is too big a step
  • Grid sizes are grouped, and each group runs easy to hard
  • Pencil recommended, especially for the later sections
