This review is from: NTC's Super-Mini American Slang Dictionary (Paperback)

I sent this to a student in Japan to help her learn English as it is spoken here. Classroom English can halp the student to read and to converse formally, but there is still difficulty in communication. This book will be a great aid that her peers do not have!
