The best thing about this dictionary is that it has a picture for EVERY word. It allows children who are not reading yet to identify the words by themselves. In addition, this dictionary is in alphabetic order. I have looked through numerous 'picture' dictionaries which group words in subject (i.e. science, nature, body, etc.) To me, this is confusing if you are trying to truly look up a word. As well as the other 'picture' dictionaries did not have pictures for every word. This is wonderful for my kindergartener to be able to look up words on her own. In addition, her school is working on letters each week and she is able to look up words for the letter of the week to get ideas of items she can bring in! I think this dictionary should be a required book for children starting school, it's GREAT!
My kids have all loved this book from the age of 16 months. Most toddlers love to find the "banana" (or many other items on each page) when asked to find the banana. Every year they will find some new picture that they never noticed before. My five-year old is into "pirate", while my 18-month old loves the "hundred" stars. There is so much to look at on every page! I will give this book as a gift to my nieces and nephews for years to come.
THIS IS MY 15 MONTH OLDS FAVORITE BOOK AND WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT IT IS ABOUT THE ONLY TIME HE WILL SIT STILL IN MY LAP! ONE OF THE BEST PURCHASES FOR MY BABY!!
Very good dictionary. Very easy for a Kindergartener to pick out letters and words from the pictures. Helps greatly with her homework. She will be using it for several years to come.
My boss gave my daughter this book when she was born. It is about in tatters because of her and her younger brother's heavy use. When they're little they love the bright pictures and later they like pointing to things and words they know. It's a great tool for letter, word, shape, color, number, animal and etc recognition. I now give it as a baby gift to my friends and relatives.
I am a volunteer English as a Second Language tutor.The pictures immediately ring a bell when you areattempting to explain "opposite", "neighborhood" andother words to someone with a very limited Englishvocabulary. The definitions are right to the point. I providestudents with a notebook which becomes theirdictionary when they copy new words into it. Insome instances a sentence containing the wordis included in the listing to show its usage. It is particularly effective when teaching verbsbecause there are pictures which illustrate themeanings. The only shortcomings are these : there is no pronunciation guide showing thesounds made by the individual letters as is foundat the beginning of most adult dictionaries; no pronunciation guide of any of thewords. There is only the word's spelling, itsmeaning and a picture. Imagine someone tryingto figure out how ENOUGH is pronounced : i - nuf' My students like the book and,in some instances,I buy one for them.
By far, the best purchase EVER for our autistic son. There is a newer edition, but this is our favorite. We have the software that uses the same illustrations and a brief verbal explanation. The software puts funny sounds and movement to the illustrations. Our son, with severely limited language uses the software and book every day. Really. It has taken him 10 years but he has learned nearly every word. DK you need to build an app similar to the software. Thank you to whomever came up with the software and book, it has been a lifesaver for our son.
Got this for our kids when they started to read... little advanced for their age at the time, but worth it... My daughter used it quite a bit once she figured out how to use it. My son, the soon to be Star Wars Lego fanatic, rarely used it; take a guess why... Good buy, lots of nice illustrations the kids liked. Still have it as a keepsake.
