CRYPTOGRAMS

Cryptograms are encoded sentences, where each letter has been substituted with another. Each puzzle has its own code, but subsitutions are consistent throughout that puzzle. A letter may not stand for itself. For example, JVVW could be code for KEEP, making every V in that puzzle an E, etc.

Last Week’s Cryptograms

1. The pretty grape was jubilant when she saw the vine leaves. She said to her mom, “you did a great job raisin me!”

2. Tolstoy’s grand novel was happily amended in the vegetable world. The clever title became: “War and Peas.”

3. The avocado family were not happy with the pale artichoke. A war of words developed and one of the kids yelled “smartichoke!”

4. One head of green lettuce said to the other convincingly: “I love you from my head tomatoes!”
