About the Author
David Ouellet has been fascinated with words since childhood. A true "wordsmith," this native of Quebec City, Canada, is the creator of Teleword and Wonderword, regarded as the most challenging of all "word searches." David was introduced to puzzle making by his mother, Jo Ouellet, who created Wonderword in 1970. Prior to syndication, David and Jo published puzzle books under various names, including Hide-A-Word, Find-A-Word and Chronogram, among others. David comes from a diverse family. His roots are Irish and French Canadian, and he is fluently bilingual. After earning a bachelor's degree in business from the University of Ottawa, David entered the business world and has held a variety of positions in the travel industry. When not making puzzles, he keeps busy as owner of a Canadian vacation marketing company. An avid bridge player, David lives in Toronto with his wife, Sophie, and cat, Felicia. WONDERWORD & TELEWORD David produces more than 500 puzzles a year and considers each a labor of love. Each puzzle is built manually, without computer-assisted shortcuts. Each puzzle uses every letter in the grid and all the words in the clue list are related to the puzzle's theme title. The millions of people who have tried their hand at Wonderword and Teleword over the years find them a true test of their "word power."

My wife is addicted to Wonderword in the local paper. I realized that that was the only reason we subscribed. She is very happy with the calendar and does the puzzle every morning with coffee. Cheaper that buying a daily paper.

My 86 year "young" Mom really enjoys this every day. She often does more than one when she feels real good.

This is great! It can sit near you and you can find words at your leisure. The whole puzzle doesn't have to be finished at one sitting.
