About Kindly Pencil Press

We make puzzle books that are kind to the eyes. Every book picks one cheerful theme, prints it big and clear, and tucks a little fun fact into every page.

Every grid is computer-checked so the hidden words appear exactly once and never share a letter, so no puzzle has a trick answer. New themes are on the way.
