Children’s book?
[edit]What makes this a children’s book? The puzzle was clearly intended for adults, as attested to both by its extraordinary difficulty and the fact that children wouldn’t be expected to go traipsing about the British Isles on a treasure hunt. I’d like to omit that classification, unless someone has a good explanation. - El Mariachi (talk) 02:51, 28 July 2015 (UTC)
- Just that it's in the style of a classic children's picture book, I guess? The adverts claimed "a child of ten is as well placed to solve the mystery as an Oxford Don", which strictly speaking is true, although a bit misleading. But lots of kids read the book, and lots of families did used the search for the hare as an outdoor activity, even though they had no idea how to find it. --twl_corinthian (talk) 15:11, 21 March 2016 (UTC)
