    Comments about Lily's Number Puzzles:

    Using the same solution to get the user to create different calculations is novel at first. It gets tiresome after a while.
    Perhaps for someone with more experience in number crunching would find it stimulating.
    With my limited math skills, I found this mundane after a while, and put it in the 'Op Shop' pile after 33 pages.
    It does not lead the user on to develop their experience. It is simply one puzzle after another.
