Reading List
BOOKS OF GAMES
1. The Cooperative Sports & Games Book
2. The Second Cooperative Sports & Games Book both by Terry Orlick (Pantheon)
Sorted by age and activity level with exceptional inter-chapter material. Although there's actually not really any "sports" in either book... it's all great cooperative games!
3. The New Games Book
4. More New Games both by Fluegelman & Tembeck (Doubleday)
These two are the original source books for this terrific play movement. A chart at the back sorts all the games in both books by group size and activity level.
5. New Games for the Whole Family by Dale Lefevre (Perigee)
Several re-runs, but still quite good.
6. Playfair by Matt Weinstein & Joul Goodman (Impact)
Games for college students and adults. An excellent resource for this age group.
7. Everybody Wins by Jeffrey Sobel (Walker)
Basically a collection of stuff from the first six books on the list with a few extras.
8. Let's Play Together by Mildred Masheder (Green Print)
Another collection, but from a wider variety of sources.
BOOKS OF OTHER ACTIVITIES
9. The Outrageous Outdoor Games Book
10. The Incredible Indoor Games Book both by Bob Gregson (Lake)
There are no games in these books: they are actually activity books. Only for the creative and open minded.
11. Steve Caney's Play Book by Steve Caney (Workman)
