Children to crack the Da Vinci Code

Capitalizing on the success of the wildly popular Da Vinci Code novel and soon-to-be-released movie, a new children’s book gives young readers a chance to crack puzzles in an “interactive adventure.” Who Can Crack The Leonardo Da Vinci Code?, by Thomas Brezina, taps into parents’ excitement about the Da Vinci Code, but according to the author, is “more historical” and does not include any conspiracy theories about the Holy Grail. The book focuses more on Leonardo Da Vinci and his life and supplies young readers with their own code-cracking scroll, a foil mirror, and a set of riddles to explore the life of the renaissance master.
