Crossword 262: Remedial Reading

November 26, 2022 David Bywaters

Lord Frederic Leighton, Study at a Reading Desk


We’ve mentioned before the benefits this website is designed to confer on elderly solvers, whose incipient dementia will be held at bay by the mental gymnastics it requires.  We haven’t, however, dwelt as much on its benefits for very young solvers, whose struggles at reading will be eased by the insight it provides into the inner workings of language and meaning.  In fact, every puzzle is subjected to intense review by two focus groups, one of 80-year-olds, one of 8-year-olds, and carefully shaped in response to their experience.  And that’s why four out of five geriatricians and nine out of ten pediatricians recommend this website.
