About the press
Front Porch Puzzle Press is a small independent press. We make practical handbooks for volunteer treasurers, record books for lodges and clubs, large-print activity books and workbooks for older adults, and a shelf of puzzle, trivia and kids' books. The aim is the same across all of them: clear pages, honest descriptions, and books that are genuinely useful to the person holding them.

A note on the rehab and memory workbooks. These workbooks are educational practice material. They are not medical advice and are not a substitute for a speech-language pathologist, therapist or other qualified professional.
