5.0 out of 5 stars Perfectly suits our needs.

I bought some crosswords from this series last year and liked them so well that I searched for more. My Mom, who is 92, and I do one of these together every morning. They are easy on the eyes-- unlike some "large-print" puzzles which have large grids but tiny writing! In her prime, Mom used to do only the "Expert" puzzles, and then hand the books down to her poor, crossword-challenged daughter, A.K.A. me. Those days are gone, but Mom now enjoys the level of challenge found in these books. I would rate them a "medium" challenge. Some of them have a theme or special clues, some don't. I highly recommend this series for someone who wants to avoid eye strain and isn't looking for the challenge of The New York Times.

Ordered two of these, one for my 93 year old father and one for myself. We both love it! If you like crosswords, Thomas Joseph's are great. They are medium in difficulty... a little challenging here and there, but mostly easy & fun. Perfect way to pass the time at the airport or on the beach. Also the LARGE PRINT versions are terrific for those of us with eyesight that has started to decline.

I got this for my mother for Christmas and she loves it! She's done over 50 puzzles in less than a month and is always telling me how much she likes this book and how easy it is to use. We like the spiral binding, large print and the fact that it has an answer key in the back for when you get stuck...It's challenging but not frustrating. I'm back for another! MJ in IL

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book for seniors / use with Lap King lap desk
Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2015

The T.Joseph large print crossword books are great for my elderly mother. The puzzles are challenging but not as hard as the NY Times. Large print is wonderful for older eyes, and she likes the spiral binding which allows her to clip on her pen so it's always handy. We actually have a different puzzle book in each room so she doesn't need to lug them around --- they are big and rather heavy. This is a drawback for arthritis, but the sheer size and firmness makes it easy to write on without buckling. Also helpful: Elevate and support the book on The Lap King lap desk which has a reversible (buttons off) flat tray for writing, reading, eating - or bubble tray (for PC). Either side works well for any purpose and we just ordered a second so we can stop sharing the one we have.

None of the descriptions apply to this book because it is a book of Crossword puzzles. It is great, my husband loved it. Thanks. Nice big print and the puzzles seem to be really good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Again -- I love this series!
Reviewed in Canada on November 19, 2013

Exact repetition of my review of other books in the series (sorry for the going on and on, but I love the series!)

Best series of Large Print Crosswords ever! Most so-called large-print crossword books are too small for people with moderately severe loss of vision. These ones have both larger grids and large print for the clues. Though in terms of point size of the font, the difference between this series and the "regular" large print crossword books is relatively small, it made all the difference in the world to my mom! She had been unable to do crosswords since the loss of vision in one eye two years ago (except with the aid of a magnifying glass, and if you've ever tried crosswords with a magnifier, you'll know it's difficult, tiring and often literally nauseating). But now she is back in the crossword game!

These books not only have the larger print, but they have a VERY well-designed layout. The clues are on the left-hand page and the grid is on the right-hand page. The requirement for back-and-forth eye movement and re-focusing is as small as humanly possible, reducing eye strain. The print is bold enough for low-vision users to read. And here's something that the publishers of those other books usually don't think of: the paper is thick. Thick enough that the bold print from the previous page does NOT show through, which is another big advantage for crossword fans with low vision.

Highly recommended, and I hope the publishers come out with more books in the series, because my mom will finish hers soon!
