5.0 out of 5 stars
Great source
I'm a cartoonist and I work a lot with words and phrases. This book is great as a springboard for ideas! What I like about it most is how it's organized by topics and ideas. Highly recommended.

There are simple idioms missing!
This dictionary is very good, especialy because it also includes phrasal verbs, which Longman American Idioms Dictionary doesn't have, but it could have more examples for every idiom, but what it is most urgent in an eventual up-to-date version is to SIMPLE idioms such as listen up, blow up = explode, my bad = my fault, etc. to be included.

I work with refugees and frequently find myself using, and then needing to explan, idiomatic phrases. It took three different sessions for them to really understand "wild goose chase"! I bought this book as a household reference resource for this inquisitive family new to America.
