Several months ago, members of our Teen Advisory Group took on several projects connected to the 125th anniversary of the New York Public Library system. One of their most popular projects was creating word search puzzles based on several titles on our Top 10 Checkouts of All Time list. The teens came up with lists of words to use for each puzzle, I put those words into Discovery Education's Puzzlemaker, and then the teens illustrated the completed puzzles.

Please enjoy these word search puzzles based on 1984 by George Orwell, Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, and the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling, and To Kill a Mockingbird  by Harper Lee.
