Short Stories and Puzzles from Those Years

A gift to share: short stories of everyday America in the ’50s, ’60s and ’70s and, after every story, its own puzzles. The first television in the building, a night at the drive-in, the corner grocery, the Sunday pot roast… Each chapter opens with a short story that takes only a few minutes to read and makes you want to share memories of your own. Then come three puzzles on the same theme: word searches, crosswords, sudoku, mazes, proverbs in code… They are not questions about the story: they are puzzles to enjoy at your own pace. Every story ends with a question headed “Something to talk about” for a chat with children and grandchildren. Large print, for real: nothing smaller than 16 point, black on white, with room to write. No puzzle depends on color. All the solutions at the back. 16 stories · 48 puzzles with solutions · black-and-white interior. A book for reading and entertainment: it is not a diagnostic test or a treatment.
