If: A Word Search Puzzle Book

Rudyard Kipling’s famous poem becomes a puzzle.

You know the words. Or perhaps you think you do.

How it works

• Each of the eight puzzles presents four lines of If— with two words missing.
• Use the rhyme and rhythm to work out what they are.
• Find both in the 12 × 12 letter grid. They run across, down or diagonally, forwards or backwards.
• There is no word list and no answer key. The complete poem waits at the end of the book. Solve your way through it, and If— gradually reveals itself again.

What’s inside

• 8 original word-search puzzles
• 16 missing words to discover
• The complete poem
• A short biography of Rudyard Kipling
