New Book! The Nostalgic Book Club Word Search
Autumn is the perfect time of year to fall in love with reading again. If you aren’t feeling inspired I have just the thing for you—my new book, The Nostalgic Book Club Word Search. Each puzzle is based on a different work of fiction published between 1800 and 1990.
In this book, you’ll find puzzles for childhood favorites like 2000 Leagues Under the Sea and Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH, classic feel-good novels like Emma and Enchanted April, and fiction that shaped its generation like On the Road and The Grapes of Wrath. You may be more familiar with the movie versions of books like Gone with the Wind and The Maltese Falcon. Finding the words may stir your memory and give you a sense of what was top of mind for the people of the time. Many of the issues these authors grappled with are as relevant today as they were then.
This 125 puzzle book is available in large print as a paperback and in hardcover, and as a write-on eBook for the Kindle Scribe.
Free Monthly Puzzle
Today is the launch of my new word search series entitled First Stanza. Each puzzle features the first group of lines from a beloved poem or a memorable verse from a popular song. In honor of this spooky time of year, you can search for words from Edgar Allan Poe’s narrative poem The Raven in this month’s free puzzle.
If you have a well-known poem or song you’d like to see as a word search, let me know. I’d be happy to add it to this series.
Please feel free to print the monthly newsletter puzzle as many times as you wish. You are welcome to hand it out to friends, family, students and anyone you think will enjoy it. Just don't sell it, distribute it electronically or pass it off as your own. Thanks!
