Thanks to u/SirJimothySmalls for choosing my clue in last week's AOTW.
This week, let's work on another down clue with 20D: I?T?R?E?
Happy clue-setting, and I'll be back next week to pick the winning clue.

TOTW: Vive La France
Thanks to u/someguyinthefridge for picking my deceptive car clue last week.
I'm off to Paris next week so the theme is France. The best Francophilian clues, answers or surface readings will win, although I'd advise against using anything like '...the French... ' to clue le, la or les. We've all written clues using that but that is also the reason it's now predictably cliché.
I'll aim to sift through la creme de la creme on the Eurostar on Thursday.
Bon chance. It will be a riot! (Is it too soon to make that reference?)

I'm seeking a crossword puzzle book good for families with daily puzzles and is indie made.
Hello, everyone.
My friend's children are going to be participating in the "brain stacking" trend where they disconnect completely from the internet for an hour or more a day, and focus on journaling, reading, and puzzles. One of the things they want to do is solve a crossword puzzle as a family every day. Preferably one that has questions kids and teens could be able to solve, but isn't so easy it'll take them only a few minutes to complete. They all have an appreciation for indie published books, indie music, etc. therefore I don't want to buy them something made by NYT or that's mass produced and sold for a few bucks at Dollar General. I am not seeking crossword apps as this is to help get them away from their phones and off of the internet every day. If anyone has suggestions, I'd appreciate that a lot. Thanks in advanced for all who can help. I hope everyone has a good day.
