An excellent reference for grade-schoolers...,

This review is from: The Kingfisher Illustrated Pocket Dictionary (Paperback)
I bought this dictionary for my 8 year-old daughter. She took it to school with her (leaving her other dictionary here at home). She kept it in her desk all year long, and referred to it as needed. It hit the spot, and was an excellent choice. If you have a child in grade school, this is a perfect item for them, fitting well into backpack or desk.

Terrific dictionary for my 4th grader.,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Kingfisher Illustrated Pocket Dictionary (Paperback)
This dictionary is just perfect for the age group. It gives them what they need to know without losing them with too many details and definitions. It's making language arts so much easier. When was the last time you saw your nine-year-old son smile when he got a dictionary???
