My son has always been very curious and inquisitive, and we do our best to answer every single question. He started asking (A LOT) what different words meant, so we got into the routine of giving our answer but also having him look up the word and reading the definition (this helps with getting familiar with spelling, and different definitions). Sometimes I find him just reading the dictionary like a book, and learning new words. I will say, the only I don’t like about this dictionary is that it is missing a lot of words compared to a normal dictionary.

I purchased this book for my son to learn new vocabulary words for the upcoming school year. He loves this book, and learning new vocabulary words. This dictionary is straightforward and easy to navigate. It also has a great reference section on how you use the dictionary. It also explains certain aspects of how the dictionary is setup, so you can get the most out of it! I’m very happy with my purchase!

My kid is reading it like a picture book. Great book for young kids.

This dictionary is pretty awesome! I think it’s an amazing tool for kids in elementary that should absolutely look up every word. It will help their comprehension so much if they were just curious to know all the meanings of all the words. The products’ success depends on the student. Nevertheless, it’s a 5-star product.

This is a great introduction on how to use a dictionary. So many of our children think a dictionary is their cell phone. This provides an “old school” lesson which gives our young ones more than their cell phones do.

Love this hard cover dictionary, My kids like it too. Every time they ask what a word means I tell them to look it up. And yes they can google it but I want them to practice their search manually in alphabetical order and to learn how to use other means that are not electronical. Great dictionary has pictures too. Would recommend to have in a class room setting as well

Pronunciations, Latin words/phrases and the meanins, synonyms (something all, perfectly elementary), syllables, adjectives, verbs if sort, hints, phrases, small stories and “word history” and “word roots”… etc… a fantastic elementary dictionary for any child. This dictionary has colorful images, but more wordage than images. I love the color coded alphabet to find the section you need quickly. My daughter is 5 years old with extraordinary language arts, reading, and comprehension levels beyond her peers, (not bragging, but very proud, yet very difficult to fulfill her ever growing curiosity and thirst for knowledge when I lack the moment of knowledge myself…a deer in headlights… Seriousl, mommies don’t know everything, but we can try 😅…) I find this is a fantastic read for most children who can read and understand and can fulfill that ever deepening knowledge well that child wishes to fill. She also asks a million times a day: “how do you spell…??” Well! Here you go my dear! Fill that well! Teaches her alphabetical order, spelling, sounding out words, gaining deeper knowledge as to what something is or what some of those things look like! For example, the other day we were talking about “cells” because we are learning about why plants are green and looking in her microscope; well, in this book, there is a beautiful illustration/diagram of a general “plant cell”. I am also endlessly fascinated by the “word history” and “word root”… some of this stuff I have absolutely forgotten long ago, so it becomes difficult to explain to my 5 year old, but these stories and history bits have teeth and the knowledge sticks and the word(s) become that more interesting. I absolutely have so much to say, but I’ll spare you… I highly recommend this dictionary for any child through teenage years. I love it!
