Customer Reviews

Perfect for what my son needed.

I wanted a dictionary for my 8 year old son that was user friendly for a child of that age. I wanted clear, easy to read meanings for the words that wasn't over his head. It was exactly what I had hoped for. He loves it and prefers to use it over asking me to help him (not that I mind helping him)!!

Excellent study aid for lower grades!

I purchased hard cover Merriam-Webster's Elementary Dictionary for each one of my First Grade Class to give at the end of the school year as a special prize. The next day two of the boys brought their dictionaries back to school with ALL of the bird pictures in the dictionary marked to show me. Each one could also read the description of the birds pictured. This is a very complete, well illustrated dictionary for any American child aged 6-14. I can see years of use for each dictionary as the children progress to upper levels. I plan to purchase the same dictionary for my class next year. I have several Scholastic dictionaries in the classroom but they are not as well researched as Merriam-Webster.

GREAT DICTIONARY.

MY DAUGHTER IS SEVEN AND WAS REALLY EXICTED TO RECEIVE THIS. I DON'T ALLOW HER TO USE THE ADULT DICTIONARY BECAUSE OF SOME OF THE WORDS IN IT. SHE WILL FIND THOSE OUT WHEN SHE GROWS UP BUT THIS IS GREAT. THE DESCRIPTION OF IT IS WONDERFUL, SHE REALLY ENJOYS IT, AND LOOKS UP WORDS FOR FUN NOT JUST FOR SCHOOL. GLAD THAT I MADE THIS PURCHASE.

I like my dictionary a lot

I like it. I use it everyday for homeschool. I like the pictures. (...) 4 years old

Best elementary dic for foreign language speaking kids

The dictionary has been intended for a nine years old girl who didn't has any English lessons till then. The book is easy to use, the explanations are simple and navigating through is arousing further interest. We think it is not only a dictionary but even more some first encyclopedia which feed the curiosity of the young ones as soon as they can read! brgds
