ALL NEW Word Puzzles: Find the hidden messages! Combine the simple fun of word-find puzzles with searching for a hidden message, as contestants do on the popular TV show, Wheel of Fortune(R). Add a dash of the third dimension as an extra challenge! What you have is the totally-new word puzzle, Quip-Find(TM). You become a sleuth and a code-breaker! Quip-Find(TM) puzzles are similar to word-find puzzles-but more challenging, and more fun: You find not just hidden words, but a hidden "quip" (a proverb or quotation). The quip is concealed in a diagram of a 3x3x3 cube, and you discover it with the aid of a cryptogram where blanks stand for the letters in the quip. Never Play Leapfrog with a Unicorn: The Quip-Find(TM) Puzzle Book of Advice contains 103 totally new and original puzzles. The advice you will find hidden in these puzzles-alternately wise, witty, profound and playful-is the reward for solving them. Experience the fun, and the challenge, of what might just be the next big thing in word puzzles!
