I can't think of anything to improve this other than adding more entries and more detailes to the illustrations.

Warning! Do NOT purchase this software! It is no longer compatible with OS X Lion, refuses to open! Even before Lion, it shows as a small, non expandable screen! For a Visual Dictionary, it is the poorest excuse for a product that I have ever seen.
