Customer Reviews

Good Stuff for Students

I ordered this book to help my students who simply can't spell. I'm amazed at how many students use this handy book to help them write essays and to correct their errors. My students find it quick and easy to use. They also tell me that this book helps them catch mistakes that a spell checker won't. I highly recommend this book to teachers who are looking for alternative ways to help poor spellers succeed.

Spell Checker Supreme

So, you think your word processor spell checker is all you need. Wrong! I have used this book for years and reach for it often when the spell checker in my mind or the one in my computer are out to lunch. Let's see, a few bucks for the book and a few minutes to look up a word and I don't look like a stupid fool who can't spell. No question. Buy the book. It's only the cost of a lunch or a couple of cups of coffee at your favorite (barista empourium)--darn it, who borrowed my Mispeller's Dictionary? Hum...you mean this web page has no spell checker? Where's that book!
