A Great Children's Dictionary!

I purchased this dictionary for my two boys (ages 8 and 10) to help them with their school work. The format and illustrations are so engaging that they like to just browse through it from time to time - even without having an assignement! The book contains more words than other children's dictionaries that I've seen, yet is very appropriate for their age level. They will probably use this book well into middle school!
Must have this dictionary for kids

I was looking for a child's dictionary and I had two choices picked out. The choices were this one and the Nick Dictionary which I thought my son would like much better but he chose this one. He likes it!! Yesterday he finished his homework as fast as he could to look at it. Here are some things that I like about it:(Nice) Colored pictures, Easy to understand definitions, Atlas pages, Information about the 50 states including the capital, state flag, flower, and state bird, Presidents of the united states to Clinton, The amount of words in this dictionary I think there are 33,000 words in here. I think this dictionary will last him for awhile. If you are looking for a child's dictionary I think this one would be the perfect choice!!!!
The best I've seen, by far.

I reviewed all the Children's Dictionaries I could find before selecting this one. It is a beautiful book. Word definitions are clear and easy to understand. Illustrations are colorful and plentiful. Supplementary information is useful and presented in an interesting format. This is one dictionary that is fun just to sit down and read! The CD ROM is also marvelous. My child loves playing the educational word games on it and so do it. There are several varieties of games and different levels of difficulty. The only drawback here is that the CD ROM cannot be used on Mac computers.
