5These books are GREAT!!  Nov 30, 2005
By A. Remington "nameyou'vechosenalreadytaken"
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!

1NYT large print easy crossword puzzles  May 06, 2007
By R. Schuster
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.

5Very enjoyable!  Apr 20, 2007
By Spunkychk "Book Freak"
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!

2The New YorK Times Large-Print Easy Crossword Omnibus Vol. 1  Sep 08, 2007
By Harry Mozen
Not easy. I bought it for my 92 yr. old mother. The clues were not appropriate for the answers.

5Just right  Oct 14, 2010
By Earleen Cox
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
