You solve these Word Ladders by changing one letter in the first word to form a new word and then repeat the process until you spell the ending word. The number of letter-change moves it took me follows each clue. Example: To change Mice into Rats I made 4 moves... mice - 1-> mi te - 2-> m ate - 3-> mat s - 4-> rats = 1. BAT MAN [2] = 2. FALL BACK [3] = 3. BALL PARK [3] = 4. PLAY DEAD [5] = 5. PLAY DEAD [4] = 6. ROCK SALT [5] = 7. POOL RACK [5]
