    So You Think You're Smart is a delightful book of word games that the entire family can enjoy. All games are concise, uncomplicated and, most of all, a lot of fun. They are about ordinary words and things that everybody knows about so only common knowledge and a bit of resourcefulness are needed to solve them.

The games are only one of the fun features. All answers are encrypted! Each is given on the same page as the game, but is printed upside-down and backward - as in a mirror image. To ensure that they cannot be accidentally read, the answers are further obscured by using italics and a reduced size type. A mirror is needed to reveal the answers - and a special unbreakable plastic one is provided with each book....

Two great new installments in the Scratch & Solve series—one focusing on musical words, the other on travel terminology—are here! And these collections are lots of fun because they let everyone play even when there’s no friend around. Each page features one puzzle, and each puzzle has the 26 letters of the alphabet accompanied by silver circles to scratch off. Choose a letter, give it a rub (just like a lottery ticket), and see if it’s in the puzzle--and where. But watch out: six misses and you’re hanged!
