Book Description

Publication Date: March 28, 2006 | Age Level: 9 and up | Grade Level: 4 and up | Series: Scratch & Solve Series

Hangman's a great way for kids to practice and improve their spelling. Now they can play even when there's no opponent around. It works much like a lottery: 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 and see if it's in the puzzle and where. But watch out: six misses at uncovering words like 'peanut butter' and 'alligator' and your hanged!

5.0 out of 5 stars My kids love this game--great for the car!, January 11, 2007

This is a great little hangman book that requires only one person, a pencil to write with and a fingernail to scratch with. Each puzzle is set up as a scratch off game. My daughters each have a book and they love it. They scratch off a letter they think fits the hangman's puzzle. If they scratch the right letter, a number is revealed and they write that letter in the appropriate place in the puzzle's answer line. If they scratch a letter that is not part of the answer then they reveal a picture of a hangman's noose and need to complete a portion of the hangman picture. It is so easy and very fun!

This was absolutely horrendous! Why buy this overpriced defective puzzlebook when you could buy something that actually works? The scratch off seals don't work. We tried a penny, a quarter, and our fingernails, and nothing worked. How hard could it be to make a scratch-off seal that actually scratches off? The people at the lottery have no problem doing it. Eventually, after my aunt and I tried just about every material known to man, the last thing that we tried was a metal nail file, and that still wasn't entirely successful-- it was extremely difficult to make even that work. This little tiny book cost $6.00! And it doesn't even work right! Why in the world would you spend $6.00 on a hangman game that doesn't even work? You could spend your money much more wisely. You can buy tons of stuff for $6.00. I absolutely loathe this game. I am taking it back. The only possible use for this book is as a firestarter. I hope you don't buy this game.
