No customer reviews yet ISBN 9780971422131

A collection of over 101 entertaining and challenging word puzzles, variations on the theme of compound words and two-word phrases.
Can you think of a common word that will make two new compound words when it's placed in the middle of the word "backlog"? Can you think of a three-letter word that will make three new words when it's added to "any", "he" and "sun"? If you enjoy puzzles like these then you'll probably enjoy this book -- because this book has lots of puzzles like these.
There is one puzzle per page. You can go through them in order or jump around any way you want. The answers are printed upside-down at the back of the book.
You probably won't need paper and pencil to solve most of the puzzles, though you can use them if you like. The main thing is to enjoy getting the answers. And speaking of answers: "water" and "lit"
