Do you like playing word games? If you are, I'm sure you'll be happy to check out Play On Words by Elmer Gentry (Trap), which has just joined the "100 Trees Project"!
This joint program was launched by Infinity Publishing, a leading self-publishing company together with Eco-Libris to promote environmental sustainability among its authors. Through the program, authors that publish with Infinity are able to plant 100 trees for the title they publish. These authors also have the option to add a special "100 trees planted for this book" logo to their book's design, as a way to showcase their commitment to environmental sustainability.
What Play On Words is about? Play On Words contains a variety of word games in which illustrations, word similarities, rhyming and double letters within words provide clues to the name of the word or words, and also their meanings. Some are classic rebuses; others are more complex word-picture puzzles. A prologue to each Act or Scene explains its own game, and provides instructions on how it is to be played. Answers are given at the end of each Act or Scene. If you can read English, decipher homophones, recognize word rhymes, and interpret visual illustrations, you are a player. Read, guess, challenge a playing partner.
About the author: Trap Gentry is a retired WWII naval aircraft carrier pilot, valuation engineer and sculptor. He is also a marginal illustrator and word-game developer. He lives in Hawaii, for the last 25 years and counting.
Play On Words is available for sale on Infinity's website.
