Merriam-Webster’s Blossom game meets word searches to create a new kind of puzzle that’s bloomin’ fun!

Merriam-Webster’s online Blossom game challenges players to find the highest-scoring words they can from a set of 7 letters, with each word containing the letter at the center of the Blossom. The puzzles in this book combine the accessibility of word searches with the anagrammatic challenge of the Blossom. The word list for each puzzle consists of words that can be found within a different Blossom, and the unused letters at the end of the puzzle reveal a bonus message. For solvers who want to keep going after the puzzle is over, a complete list of words found in each Blossom will be available in a separate section of the book after the main answer section.
