Book Details

Wanted: The Eyes Have It!

The faces, especially the eyes that look back at me, in the photos on these wanted posters hold magnificent stories. They are people who had mothers, fathers, families, those they loved, and some had those who loved them. There were childhoods, picnics, long workdays, and many different adventures. They aren’t horrible people that I see, but ones who were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

These “wanted” suspects’ eyes captivate me.

What do you see when you peer into someone’s eyes? Are these severe ruthless criminals, or are they people just like you and me?



 

Book Excerpt

This book has three sections:


Section one will show the eyes of someone whose photo was displayed on a wanted poster, card, or circular. Below the image of the eyes will be questions relating to the person displayed.


Section two shows the actual mug shots of the wanted people in this book. It will be your task to match the eyes with the faces.


Section three is the solution which matches the eyes with the faces. The solutions also include the suspects' names, suspected crimes, and the issue dates of the wanted items.


Finally at the end is an index for quick reference.
