2.0 out of 5 stars Lots of words left out., November 27, 2007

This review is from: Webster's New World Large Print Dictionary (Paperback)

I got this dictionary because I read in bed at night and use a booklight. If I run upon a word I don't know, I would like to have a dictionary that's easy to see quickly without straining my eyes. (I'm 45) The print in this dictionary is great, but lots of words are left out, rendering it almost useless. Why not leave out the easy words if something has to go? Bottom line -- I'm back to straining my eyes with a regular dictionary.

I wish that I had ordered sooner. Print is very readable. Large printing but the dictionary is small in size. Will be giving for Christmas presents to my Senior Friends. Highly Recommended

Her eyesight is not what it used to be, so she asked me to buy her a "good dictionary in large print". I couldn't think of any other title but this one, and she loves it.
