Verified Purchase
While I am not an educator, I bought this puzzle book because 1) I love word search puzzles, and 2) I have a middle school Grandson who stays with me often. I love the themed puzzles, and, it makes for a great source of topics for discussing and teaching my Grandson. Just got the booked and already hooked!
