Palindromania!
Authors:
Hardcover, 112 pages
Publisher: Farrar, Straus and Giroux (BYR)
Publication Date: 2002-10-24
Edition: 1st

Reviews :

   
The ultimate celebration for the palindromic year 2002!What exactly is "palindromania"? It's the inability to see the word STRAW without thinking WARTS. It's the powerful impulse to reverse the name OPRAH to make it HARPO. It's the uncontrollable urge to buy A TOYOTA. It's an obsession with words and phrases that read exactly the same forwards and backwards. And now, in his most entertaining and extensive volume, Jon Agee, the prime purveyor of palindromes, has taken this unique word phenomenon to a whole new level. Featuring themed sections, comic-strip-style stories, and even lengthy monologues, Agee's collection of over 160 familiar and unfamiliar palindromes paired with all-new masterly cartoons is a treasure for word-lovers young and old.

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.
