Review: Superb Children's Dictionary - Hubby and I read the reviews of several children's dictionaries and even went to a couple of bookstores to physically see them and we were very impressed with this one. The others were very good too, but the illustrations on every single page of this dictionary compelled us to purchase this one for our two kids ages 6 and 8. I tested it by looking up words that I thought a children's dictionary wouldn't have such as "paraffin", "spectre", and "rosette" and was pleased to find them all. The pages are good quality paper, the printing clear and easy to read, and the photographic illustrations are very clear. Though it did have the definitions for the male and female reproductive organs, there were no pictures of them so I guess that's good if you are wanting to keep your children from seeing such things. In the back of the dictionary is a very good reference section with world maps and information about the various countries and continents, several pages of world flags, a list of the presidents of the United States, abbreviations, pronunciation guides and a picture index. This dictionary is great for kids in elementary through high school and adults can use it too. I wish I had one of these when I was in school! I can't believe a book of this scope and quality costs less that 15 dollars. A very good dictionary for anyone needing one.
Review: Truly great kid's dictionary - My second-grader needed a dictionary for school, and this one not only is expansive, but it also is very kid-friendly. My grandson is not very bookish, but he enjoys this one, because it contains just about "every word you could imagine," in his words, and because it is seductively beautiful and brightly illustrated with decent print, as reflected in his eyes. It has been a long time since I thought of a dictionary as "fun", but now I remember what it was like to explore the English language at a young age of discovery. What's more, this dictionary is more fun to read, while pondering its copious illustrations that seem to jump off the page, than even the encyclopedic dictionaries of old. To my mind, this is a near-perfect dictionary for the young (and even for the young-at-heart). This partnership of Merriam-Webster and DK is stunning, just stunning. The only negative to such an ambitiously large compendium of knowledge obviously is its size and weight. But not only did my grandson not complain about how large and heavy it is, but he has happily carried this dictionary everywhere, seemingly proud to display such a "weighty" and "beautiful" book for all to see. To tell the truth, he does look smarter just holding it. What's more, it seems not only well designed, but also well manufactured, with a real protective cover, and thick pages, that should hold up well to many years of use by young hands. Frankly, for such quality, the price seems an unbelievable bargain.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simplistic and easy to understand for kids - plentiful of pictures and colors
*by D***Y on April 29, 2012*

I sometimes wish that collegiate and student dictionaries were this fun. As a child, learning was filled with colors, pictures, and vivid vibrant diagrams. It was a blast. Several editions later, the Merriam-Webster Children's dictionary still remains an easy to understand dictionary for children, with lots of interesting pictures. I remember flipping through the pages of one of the older editions, just in awe and curious about the pictures in the dictionary. Not much has changed, but the quality and quantity of pictures feel enhanced, more refined. As I had mentioned, the definitions are straight to the point and easy to understand. Certainly still one of the best children's dictionaries out there right now. Perfect for any child and even for adults! There's a saying that goes something like this: "Children's books and dictionaries are sometimes the best way to learn since it needs to be simple and easy to understand." Cheers
