I really enjoyed this book. It was challenging and a great learning tool for adults and kids. There were so many facts that I did not know about so many countries and I learned about them in a fun and easy manner. My daughter did the puzzles with me and we were a tag team helping each along. Although the finding the answers was not hard, which makes it a great puzzle book for teens, it also fits perfectly for adults too.

Thank you to NeGalley for giving me the opportunity to review this book.

Word searches just don't seem to work on iPads (at least for me), but I can tell that I would enjoy them if I were looking at them on paper!

Around the World Word Search Puzzles contains 100 word puzzle focused in a variety of countries, and international cities. Instead of just a word to find, you are given information about that word, be it person, place or thing. There's lots here to keep one occupied. Unfortunately, I had a Netgalley digital review copy, so it was hard to circle words. I'd love to snag a hardcopy of this since I love word puzzles!

***Many thanks to Netgalley and Dover Publications for providing an egalley in exchange for a fair and honest review.

I’m a huge fan of word search puzzles, and have been since I was young. I would see my mom and nana doing them and would pretend I could when I was super young. I’ve never had the chance to review and word search book before, so I jumped at the chance. I’m honestly not that great when it comes to geography so was excited to see how I would enjoy this take on the puzzles. I’m happy to say I absolutely enjoyed these and learned while I was at it. It was so cool to try and test my knowledge while playing a fun game of word search, such a unique take on an age old puzzle.

For those who enjoy Word Search puzzles, this looks like a fun collection. Learn about geography while you search for the hidden words. A fun way to de-stress.

Another well done word search book from Dover Publications. Weeks worth of challenging puzzles to educate and entertain. Puzzles are presented alphabetically by country, followed by city puzzles (also ordered alphabetically). Words to find include famous people, foods, cities, animals, industries, cultural landmarks, and more--all relative to the particular country or city featured. Five stars.

These were incredibly fun! They were a little more challenging than your normal word searches since I was unfamiliar with some of the words. I also enjoyed the tidbits of information provided next to the word. It created a fun way to learn more about the world!

Wonderful collection of word finds featuring cities and countries around the world. As an added, educational feature, all word clues include information and or explanations. So the reader learns about geography, languages, resources, art and culture of the different locations.

An excellent learning tool, and appropriate for ages 8 and up, I would say, or even younger if they are interested in learning about the world.
