Product Description
Oxford Word Challenge is an enjoyable and stimulating mixture of entertainment and educative material, consisting of quizzes and puzzles for the reader to solve. Tony Augarde has created a wide variety of different word challenges for readers to try, including anagrams, acronyms, cryptic
crossword clues, doublets, kangaroo words, palindromes, and spoonerisms.
The first section allows readers to enjoy some comparatively easy questions, such as "Can you name a dozen trees starting with S?" Once you've warmed up, the difficulty increases, until ultimately, you can take on the challenge of fiendishly difficult problems like "Which words have all the
vowels in order?"
An answers section at the back of the book not only gives solutions, but also adds relevant background information wherever possible, including word origins and interesting stories about how words are used. Whether you're a veteran of word games or a novice with a desire to test your wits, this is
a book that will give you hours of intellectual entertainment.
