Question by bluetea987: What’s the name of that activity/games book, which had that decoding pen and was for kids ages 8 to 88?
You used to buy them at gas stations about 20 years ago. Kind of a narrow book. It came with this pen which produced a clear, transparnet liquid on normal paper. But when used in the book it revealed a black print underneath. They had games like Hangman and Battleship in the book. I think the cover of the books had a cartoon kid with a magnifying glass.
And they wrote things like “For kids aged 8 to 88″ or “For kids aged 6 to 116″ on the cover. Some crazy age limits like that.

I remember those! Heck if I can remember what they were called, though. Seems like it may have been from the same people that made “Mad Libs.”
Got it! They’re called “Yes and Know” invisible ink books and there are a bunch here: http://www.kidslovetravel.com/invisible_ink_books.htm

It says “ages 12-112.”
