I love anagrams (words or phrases that can be rearranged to form other words or phrases). The anagrams below all relate to a single, memorable kidlit personage.
Can you rearrange the letters in each entry to reveal the original list? (If you can, you may brag in a comment, but please don't post any spoilers--I'll publish the solution next week.)
Rave, Fay Wray!
Dishearten wheelwright
Giggly, gloppy epithet
Thickening the thin
Slow, supple me
Outhit, Rose veered
My blue bard
(Need a hint? The subject of this puzzle used nice karma.)
[Solution: I don't want to post an outright spoiler, but you'll find all the answers here.]
Ah, clever, and the hint helped. But you didn't use my favorite: Etch thine thin king
ReplyDeleteExcellent--you supply another anagram for *thickening the thin*. Careful--you may be catching anagram fever, too. (Do you ever work cryptic crosswords?)
ReplyDeleteOh, haha, of course - I had zipped through too fast and thought thickening the thin was another one, which is rather silly when I look at it now. No I don't think I've ever done cryptic crosswords. I'm not a huge crossword person, but I love Scrabble and Sodoku and logic puzzles.
