I do the Jumble puzzle in the morning paper EVERYDAY! Having this book means I can do them even more often! It is much more challenging than watching incipid programs on TV!

I've had this book for 2wks. There are 513 puzzles and I have already done 399 of them! It is relaxing, fun, and makes you think!

Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!

Jumbles keep my mind active! I am so happy that these books are available from Amazon!

This is a wonderful collection of Jumble puzzles. They're the same stuff as the ones I get in the paper everyday by Henri Arnold, Bob Lee, and Mike Argirion.

There are 511 puzzles. The first 450 puzzles have four scrambled words and one "solution phrase" each, plus the usual illustration. The last 61 puzzles have two extra unscrambled words each.

There is one puzzle per page, so the puzzle is blown up to a huge size, which makes it easy to see and solve. There is a lot of white space around each puzzle, which helps because you can use it to write on as you try to figure out the correct letter combinations.

AND... the answers are all in the back, so you can check your answers. Or take a premature peek.

This book is huge, like a phone book, but probably not as heavy. Perfect for Jumble addicts.

The highest price Amazon is asking for is $13.57 (with super saver shipping), which is a bargain, considering the list price is $19.95.

Other books just like this include:

*Giant Jumble: Another Big Book for Big Fans
*Generous Jumble

And, I'm pretty sure,

*Jumbo Jumble: A Big Book for Big Fans

Enjoy!

My wife and I have been doing these puzzles for decades. We love them. This edition is great.

My mother loves to do these puzzles. My father was unable to purchase at local stores. He was very happy to get these for a Christmas present to give to my mom. Great price and worth the cost for the number of puzzles inside. Would highly recommend to other "puzzle" people.

I read the paper each day and do the jumble and the crossword puzzle. It is nice to be able to do extra jumbles when I have the time. Good way to spend time when you are on hold for instance.

What a collection for a Jumble addict! Have been doing Jumbles since day one. Find them wherever they are printed. Everywhere! Friends bring them to me. Print one, I will find it. Some are challenge for the mind. Some not so challenging - but fun and funny. AG

Although this book is entertaining and fun, it's actually as large and as heavy as a full size bible. The only place to put it when you want to use it is on a flat surface. I wish it were available in a smaller size...something I could take with me in my purse when I travel and not have to worry about the weight or bulkiness. I enjoyed solving the puzzles, which were all new to me, and I do a lot of them. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys this type of puzzle solving.
