THE CHAMPION WORD GAME BOOK
Norr, Rita & Audrey Tumberello
Putnam (October 1993)

We are a nation of word game lovers. Our infatuation with language as entertainment is evidenced by the popularity of crossword puzzles, acrostic puzzles, syndicated puzzles such as Scrabble Grams by Judd and the Jamble puzzle. THE SCRABBLE CHAMP'S WORD GAME BOOK is written by Rita Norr, the ONLY woman to win the world title. Norr was the 1987 world champion and is listed in the 1990 Guinness Book of World Records and the 1988-89 Guinness Sports Records Book. Not only did Norr win her title at a game dominated at the top by men, but she won at the biggest Scrabble tournament in Scrabble history. Tumbarello, an educational writer, is a ranked expert player. Norr and Tumbarello write that it is no accident that certain people consistently win at word games. By figuring out the puzzles in their book, players of all levels can master the specific skills necessary to win at Scrabble, Boggle, Upwards, other crossword and anagram games, and more.
