The psychological impulse to discern faces in random patterns on inanimate objects is known as pareidolia. It has brought us the Virgin Mary on a cheese sandwich, the shroud of Turin, Elvis in a cup of coffee, the man in the moon, and Aunt Mary in a cloud formation. In this delightful and funny gift book, you can test your ability to find faces in all kinds of places, including building facades, electrical sockets, and fruit. Examples of pareidolia are all around us, and you will be amazed at what you will see!
