These books are GREAT!!,
By A. Remington "nameyou'vechosenalreadytaken" (Land of The Shining Corn) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The New York Times Large-Print Easy Crossword Omnibus, Vol.1: 120 Easy-to-Read, Easy-to-Solve Puzzles from the Pages of The New York Times (Paperback)
I bought a BUNCH of these New York Times Crossword books for my mom including this one. She was very ardent about working puzzles and felt they helped her maintain her mental powers. I felt they did. I wondered if the print was TOO large but then it gave her a large work space as she savored the puzzles and kept returning to them. I also gave her a subscription to crosswords she could receive from them in the mail. During a visit, I was pleased to see she and a friend working them together. They are the perfect gift for an aging person who might be physically disabled but likes to stay on top of their game. Great stimulation!

These puzzles are NOT easy. I gave this book to my elderly mother in a nursing home to help pass the time and she cannot even start most of the puzzles.
It was a waste of money to buy this book.

My Dad loves crosswords but they're always so small.. with this he doesn't need to wear his glasses. I see him at this book a lot! The puzzles really aren't that easy; they aren't the mind numbing challenges you'll get on Saturday and Sunday... more like Monday - Thursday's puzzles in the NY Times. Respectable levels of difficulty to keep you challenged yet able to complete. I DO find some he hasn't finished yet. My Dad's a pretty smart guy (Cornell grad) and I want to keep him that way... a great gift!

Not easy. I bought it for my 92 yr. old mother. The clues were not appropriate for the answers.

This should not be labeled easy, but just right. I have a masters and my husband has a PHD and we work a crossword a day and find this just right for a 30 to 45 minute challenge
