Dear Ann,
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you saw yesterday's Star-Ledger, but the newspaper is running a series of Harry Potter crosswords (free form) in anticipation of the final book of the series. One puzzle for each book.
The first one ran yesterday and the others are scheduled for every other week (increasing in difficulty with each puzzle).
Beginning with the next puzzle (May 10), players will be able to solve the crossword online at the Ledger's Harry Potter blog at www.nj.com.
Thank you.
