This Football Word Scrambles book is great for both American football lovers and word puzzle enthusiasts. It makes a nice gift, too. Each puzzle consists of football-related words or phrases, like touchdown, field goal, or fumble. All of the words from each puzzle are related - for example, they might all be football plays, penalties, or equipment. Knowing that the words in each puzzle are related may help you unscramble any words or phrases that you don't see right away. You can check all of your answers with the solutions in the back of the book. The puzzles appear in tables that resemble football fields. All of the words are general football terms; there are no team or individual names in this book. Here is a sample: (1) E E R F R E E (2) T H E M E L (3) C A L T E K. Answers: (1) referee (2) helmet (3) tackle.
