Book Description
Why is this puzzle book different from all other puzzle books? It’s a uniquely fun mix of Japan meets Judaism! While the process of working out these word sudokus (wordokus) is the same as usual--fill in the boxes with the correct letters so they don’t repeat--the solutions are extraordinary, because each one results in a word associated with Yiddish or Jewish life. For example, there’s Bar Mitzvah, Chutzpah, Dreidels, and Matzo Balls. Start by using the letters underneath the wordoku: they’re arranged into an easy-to-remember phrase. When the puzzle is done, the correct word will be spelled in a straight line somewhere. (There are a few extra Jewish words thrown in for good measure.) The puzzles come in three sizes: 8 x 8, the traditional 9 x 9, and 10 x 10.
