"Queer Pride Puzzles: Volume One" is a first-of-its-kind collection of variety puzzles, all with LGBTQ+ themes and answers! This book includes word searches, quotation puzzles, logic problems, mini-crosswords, visual puzzles, mazes, and queer twists on classic puzzles. Solving these puzzles will reveal the names of a wide spectrum of LGBTQ+ people, from award-winning actors and actresses, athletes from every sport, politicians, business leaders, news and media journalists/personalities, musicians and authors of every genre, scientists, astronauts, activists, historical figures, and more. It's a window into an education most of us have never received in school. With a renewed assault against our community, it's more important than ever that we come together and show pride in our accomplishments and history while having fun.
This book is for everyone in the LGBTQIA+ community, their friends, family and allies of all ages! These activities embrace individuals, from those just beginning to come out to those who've been out for decades. This book will spark your curiosity; challenge your mind; tickle your sense of humor; and show pride in a community that's vibrant, diverse, colorful, talented, and strong.
For puzzle fans, this collection has a wide variety of puzzles to challenge you! Word search lovers will find a bunch of puzzles to tackle about a specific LGBTQ+ person, event, or groups. Six-Packs are mini crosswords that give you six clues for the six words you must fill into the small grid. QueerDoku is a Sudoku variant where instead of the numbers 1-9, there are nine unique letters for each puzzle. Namedropping is a variety of the classic Quotefalls, where you discover the quote's author while solving the quote itself. Patchwords is a Jumble variant where clip art is used to suggest the answer. Tops & Bottoms are like classic Frameworks puzzles but double the challenge and fun. Invisible Mazes task you to find your way through a maze when some of the walls are invisible. There are also some Japanese-style logic problems that now have a queer twist, like Numberlink, now Lesbian Speed Dating, and Trees aka Camping, now Queer Qamp. You'll find visual puzzles, Head-to-Head mazes, Mixed-Up Drag Story Time, and more.
Now grab a pencil and an eraser (just in case), and get to it. Happy puzzling!
