There are ordinary word searchesand then there are these created especially for kids by Mark Danna. What makes them special? For starters, many of them have shapes that relate to their themes: a penguin, a rocket ship, a wedding cake, a volcano, or some other appealing design. For another, some of them contain rebuses (example: in Auto Focus, the letters C-A-R appear as a little car). Best of all, every one of the 52 puzzles delivers a hidden payoff: After all the hidden words and phrases have been correctly circled, the remaining letters spell out a fascinating fact, a wacky joke, a tongue twister, or something else guaranteed to raise a smile. A surefire hit for kids who enjoy a challenge."
