Wacky-Shaped Word Search Puzzles to Keep You Sharp » (Spiral)

Word search puzzles don't get much better than this." —Will Shortz, Puzzlemaster for National Public Radio's "Weekend Edition"

Add a touch of wackiness to ordinary word search fun for a little extra challenge. Instead of ordinary squares and rectangles, these puzzles come in really wild shapes or have an entertaining twist. Each word search has a theme to go along with the distinctive picture; for example, a grid in the shape of a smiley face has clues that deal with being happy. A tulip puzzle features flowers as its subject. In addition, 10 puzzles have special gimmicks: in three rebuses, little symbols replace certain letter combinations (such as a picture of a teacup in place of T-E-A). “Movie Editing” plays a little game with Hollywood films, by giving them a one-word title change to create a very different plot.
