What makes these 56 word search puzzles so extraordinary, so completely AWESOME? For the first time ever, every single one comes in a picture shape that relates to the puzzle's theme. So, you'll get such shapes as an ice cream cone (for "Here's the Scoop"); a bowling ball and pin ("Right Up Your Alley"); a snowman ("Snowed In"); and a boat ("For Sail"). And there's more: some of the puzzles have rebuses and other gimmicks, and every single puzzle contains a secret message. To see what that message says, go to the grid, find and circle all the phrases on the word list, then read all the uncircled letters from left to right, top to bottom, to spell out a "punny" answer to a riddle, humorous thought, or fun fact. (The letters are in order--but you have to figure out how the letters get divided into words.) That's what makes this collection a real, Mensa-level challenge!

Children love word searches...and these 50 tricky puzzles have a fun twist! All the words in the search list are scrambled, so before kids can even begin to look, they have to solve the anagram. That's just like having SCRABBLE® letters in front of you and having to figure out what words they can spell. To make things a little easier, each puzzle has a theme and all the words are placed in alphabetical order. There's "After School Snack" (including bananas, cookies, peanuts, and pizza), "At the Theater," "Colors," "Garden," and many other appealing categories.

Word search puzzles don t get much better than this. Will Shortz, Puzzlemaster for National Public Radio Mark Danna whose earlier Word Search Puzzles for Kids was a huge success has come up with even more smart search challenges to delight brainy youngsters. What makes them so special? First, the letters in every grid form a picture, so instead of ho-hum squares, children get lively shapes. Then, the puzzles feature a few additional twists. Three of the searches don t have word lists, for example; the puzzler has to create them from a series of clues. And finally, each puzzle has a hidden message: once kids have circled all the correct phrases, the uncircled letters will spell out a silly quote, fun fact, or punch line to a punny riddle. "
