Perfect for an "exceptional" going-to-lst-grade student
Writing is my granddaughter's favorite subject and so this is a perfect book for her to use to express herself.She can look up the words herself easily.Thank you.

poor binding
This is a simple book, geared for the elementary student. Content seems fine, but the binding and quality of paper is poor.I suspect it will fall apart before the year is over.

Teacher loves it
This dictionary was complimented on by my child's teacher and suggested as a must buy for the other children.I love Amazon's suggestions b/c had I not purchased the MW children's dictionary I would have never found this synonyms/antonyms/homonyms dictionary.It also arrived quickly (less than 5 days).

Scholastic Dictionary for Synonyms, Antonyms, and H. . .
I got this book to expand on my vocabulary but found it limited. Iprefer antonyms and synonyms to Thesarus as they give a more direct and quick understading of words by contrasting them to other common words.Unfortunately, I found this book limited in the number of words identified.

To do that, you often need to know synonyms and this book is a handy pocket aid containing nearly all of the most commonly used words. It is also written for the young student, although adults will find it just as valuable. As a regular user of synonyms, I can recommend this book. ... Read more
