Suggestions for using Math Puzzles to stimulate my math students

[robertphy]

The question is: my students (K9-12) have received the (sadly) usual routine based Math pseudo-education, before me teaching them.
The best way to curb the tide is to use Math puzzles, to re-ignite their love of Math, lost in kindergarten.
Now, which book would you suggest to fight the battle?
For example, there's a long list on google search, whose short version you find below.
I ask for your suggestion as more experienced educators and scientists.
Thank you all .

Here is a reaction but not really a response an answer.
You indicated your students are grades 9 through 12. Used to be, that college preparatory students of Mathematics in high school would study Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, and whatever else might follow. They had included in their books (maybe not so well these days) application exercises, which were usually good due to giving a very practical inspiration, at least for some students.
