Welcome to this brand-new book, featuring 100 fantastically fun Spelling Word Wheel puzzles. If you've played and enjoyed our standard word wheel books, you're sure to enjoy this new spelling puzzles book, with a twist. In our standard word wheel puzzles, you may only use each letter in the wheel once. But the fun twist with our spelling word wheel puzzles is that you can use each letter as many times as you like! This makes the puzzles considerably trickier, and to compensate for this these word wheel puzzles all have seven letters in them, as opposed to the usual nine. But as before, every word you make must contain the middle letter. This fun twist means you can have even more tricksy fun finding anagrams and sub-anagrams of the letters in the wheel, and these puzzles are sure to challenge even someone who is both a spelling bee expert and a seasoned anagram spotter. For instance, if the central letter is an 'E' and the other letters are A, B, C, L, P and T, then it is now possible to make the word 'acceptable' now that letters can repeat. This book of spelling word wheel puzzles contains 100 fresh challenges. For every puzzle we set you three totals to aim for: - A target score: the number of words to aim for - Good: as the name suggests, a decent total - Excellent: a target for the experts among you In addition, every puzzle has one or more "star words": these are words that use every single letter in the puzzle. We tell you how many there are to find for each puzzle, along with the word lengths. Finally, we let you know the longest word there is to find in each puzzle - will you be able to deduce the star words in each puzzle and be sure to find the longest word too? As ever, all the solutions are included at the back of the book, so if you get stuck or just want to check your solution, everything you need to do so is readily available. We hope you enjoy this brand new book of word wheel puzzles. For more puzzle books, please visit www.puzzle-book.co.uk

The Astounding Broccoli Boy is the hilarious tale of an unlikely (and very green) hero believing in himself and finding adventure. Rory Rooney likes to be prepared for all eventualities. His favourite book is Don't Be Scared, Be Prepared, and he has memorized every page of it. He could even survive a hippo attack. He knows that just because something is unlikely doesn't mean it won't ever happen . . . But Rory isn't prepared when he suddenly and inexplicably turns green. Stuck in an isolation ward in a hospital far from home with two other remarkably green children, Rory's as confused by his new condition as the medics seem to be. What if turning green actually means you've turned into a superhero? Rory can't wait to make it past hospital security and discover exactly what his superpower might be . . . This edition of Frank Cottrell Boyce's funny adventure features fantastic cover artwork and black and white inside illustrations from the incredible Steven Lenton.
