This product arrived after 3 days after expected date and, I feel that I was mislead about the condition of the item.
Rating: - first rate kids dictionary
My wife picked out this dictionary for my son when he was about to turn 5, and he has really enjoyed it. The definitions and examples are written in language that he can easily understand (a major issue for kids this age), the pictures are very good, and it's comprehensive enough that he can usually find what he's interested in. I'm very glad that we have a copy of this book.

Rating: - More than a dictionary!
I sampled several children's first dictionary's at the bookstore. None really compared to this one. It not only teaches children the meaning of words, where they come from and how they can be confused by same sounds, it also teaches about dates, money, measurment and has colorful maps. The only thing I would add to this dictonary is an alphabet column on the edge of the pages highlighted with the letter of each section. Otherwise it's the best one out there for a first childs dictionary.
