About this book

300 LARGE-PRINT PUZZLES. 600 WORDS. NOTHING BUT THE CRAFTS OF JAPAN.

Most word-search books give you 100 puzzles about anything. This one gives you 300 — and every single word comes from a Japanese workshop.

Start at the potter's wheel — clays, glazes, climbing kilns and the great regional wares — then move down the bench: lacquer and gold makie, joinery and bamboo, forge-welded blades, the loom and the indigo vat, washi paper, dolls, fans, noh masks, braided cords, brushes and incense, folk toys, tea utensils and gold leaf, in big, comfortable large-print 15×15 grids.

Learn while you play: every hidden word comes with a one-line note — what the tool is, what the technique does, and where you would meet it in a real workshop. By Puzzle 300 you will read a craft fair in Japan like an insider. Not one word is recycled from the earlier volumes: a completely new 600-word crafts pool with zero overlap, checked by program against every previous book.

Made to be solved: all 300 puzzles are computer-verified in two independent ways, so every hidden word appears exactly once — no printing mistakes, no impossible grids. Full highlighted solutions are printed at the back.

For paper and for pen: solve the paperback with a pencil, or open the Kindle Scribe edition and circle words right on the page.

The perfect gift for makers, Japan lovers, craft-fair travellers, and Mom, Dad, Grandma and Grandpa — the language of Japan's workshops, one puzzle at a time.

Inside: 300 puzzles · 30 craft themes · 600 words with notes · 3,000 word placements · verified unique solutions · full answer key
