Great for my bright 10-year old daughter. It's hard to find good crossword puzzles for kids like her who have strong vocabularies but just don't know enough to answer many of the questions in easier crossword puzzles for adults. For example, most adults would get "Mata ____" (4 letters) but few kids will know it. This book still has a fair number of words that just stump her because she doesn't know the historical or cultural references but it's better than most. I also got Clever Crosswords for Kids, which is good as well.
I bought this book hoping it would help my daughter with her vocabulary and it has. I would definitely recommend the Web Crosswords for Teens.
It's hard to find a good entry level crossword book for teenagers. This fits the bill. My teen loves it.
These were perfect for a fifteen year old... some tough vocabulary, some pop culture, some general history, science, etc. A nice, fairly challenging blend.
Perfect level for my 11 and 13 year olds. They get most of them, and occasionally ask for help on some tougher ones. A lot of fun for car rides.

My son really likes this for a starter crossword solver.
