Super Mario Bros. - Mots croisés is a set of four Super Mario-themed crossword books. The books were written by Yvon Renson, illustrated by Gauthier Dosimont, and published by Hemma in 1992.[1] The books contain many crossword puzzles, accompanied by illustrations featuring Mario. Each crossword puzzle corresponds to the illustration's theme; for example, a crossword puzzle about nature features Mario running on an open field near forest, while a crossword puzzle about motor racing features Mario in a dragster. Despite the books' title, most of the puzzles have little to no relation to the Super Mario franchise, though illustrations featuring Mario are included on most pages of the books, with Luigi also making an appearance in the third book on page 4 and Princess Toadstool additionally making an appearance in the first book on page 15. A Lakitu also appears in the first book on page 9. The books also feature original artwork not seen in any other Super Mario media.
All of the books are part of a collection titled Croisons les mots avec Mario ("Cross words with Mario").

Notes[edit]
- Though the majority of the books depict Mario with his original color scheme (blue shirt and red overalls), a crossword featuring him using a jump rope as Raccoon Mario in the third book depicts him with his modern colors (red shirt and blue overalls). Luigi also appears with his modern colors (green shirt and blue overalls) as opposed to his original colors (blue shirt and green overalls) throughout the book.
