Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you were to imagine your ideal guide to a book of word games, who would you picture? Does an urbane, witty writer come to mind? How about a widely recognized authority and historian of games? Perhaps you'd want someone who successfully creates games himself and has written extensively on a wide variety of games? And oh what the heck let's make him British to add a bit of extra charm. Well, if that sounds like the ideal game guide, look no further. David Parlett is an internationally recognized master of games. The author of many books, including the Oxford History of Board Games and The Penguin Book of Card Games, he has also created many games including Hare & Tortoise, which has sold over 3 million copies. In "The Book of Word Games" Parlett presents a practical and entertaining guide to word games and how to play them. He offers clear and witty introductions to over 150 word games, indicating degree of difficulty, appropriate number of players, and age range (many of the games are great for the classroom or to give your kids some fun while improving their language skills). Parlett also gives a wealth of interesting etymological knowledge, including word origins, phonetic facts and interesting tidbits like the longest word in the English language. There is something for everyone, from new readers to sophisticated word connoisseurs.

Download or read book Word Puzzles of the Bible from A to Z written by Diane M. Bannard and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All my puzzle book verses use the King James Version because I do all my research in the King James Version. The puzzle books are a Bible study motivator not really made as a Bible study, but a fun way to get you into studying the Bible with subject topics. The questions are asked in a way that lets you know how the word applies in the verse. The King James Version uses Old English; some words are different than we are accustomed to spelling and using them. God led me to write the puzzle books to get people more interested in studying the Bible to want to know more about God, and find interesting ways to learn interpretation of words in the Bible to understand more of what you read. This type of book is really great for young people and newly saved people to get them into reading the Bible and knowing more about it, and is still fun for anyone who likes word puzzles of any kind. I hope this book is as enjoyable for you to read as much as it was a pleasure for me to write. Quantity discounts are available!
