Why Word Search Books Are a Staple
Word Search puzzles have a massive, broad appeal ranging from educational books for kids to "Large Print" books for seniors. They are easy to consume and highly addictive.
Pro Tip: Focus on "Large Print" (16pt+ font) niches. The senior market for word search books on Amazon is huge and constantly looking for new themes.
