Snorkels

Enjoy swimming with the best snorkel equipment

I’m trying to remember the titles of two childrens’ books I remember reading at primary school in about 1988?

These books were nicely illustrated and told stories in which the reader was cast as protagonist (though there was no ‘fighting fantasy’ choice element as in "turn to page 10 to go North, turn to page 11 to go South"". Each page featured some sort of puzzle and there were common puzzle themes running throught the book. One I recall as being about a funfair, and some sort of evil plot involving poison gas hidden in light bulbs (one of the puzzles running through that book involved spotting these bulbs). The other book, in the same series, had a fantasy setting and the only puzzle I remember involved a question of where a character could hide having escaped from a castle into the surrounding moat, the answer being that he should use some reeds to form a Snorkel to breathe through.

    Could they have been from the "Bunnicula" series of books? Bunnicula was a vampire bunny, and my daughter read them in that time frame - by James Howe - also by Howe were the Harold & Chester Picture Books -
