Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
From the publishers of America's #1 dictionary for children comes a completely revised and expanded edition of the best-selling Macmillan Very First Dictionary. Truly the perfect dictionary for beginning readers, the Macmillan First Dictionary defines words in a way children can easily understand. Definitions are phrased clearly and simply -- and are given in complete sentences. Colorful photographs and illustrations make even difficult words easy to grasp. The Macmillan First Dictionary is the one book every preschool and primary-grade child should have.

This product arrived after 3 days after expected date and, I feel that I was mislead about the condition of the item.

My wife picked out this dictionary for my son when he was
about to turn 5, and he has really enjoyed it. The definitions
and examples are written in language that he can easily
understand (a major issue for kids this age), the pictures
are very good, and it's comprehensive enough that he can
usually find what he's interested in. I'm very glad that
we have a copy of this book.

Although my son is only in very first grade...heading into second, he has found this dicionary to be a wealth of knowledge. It has not only been helpful in looking up words he is uncertain of, but it is also entertaining enough for him to explore all on his own as a book of knowledge. It is actually helping him learn how to read. The pictures in it are accurate and interest grabbing. This is helping him to read and learn as his interest is piqued by the illustrations and he constantly picks it up just to thumb through it and "read" it. I am a teacher and I do feel this is one of the best dictionaries out there for the students just learning to read and look up definitions. For students at a higher level, I recommend the MacMillan Dictionary for Students. My daughter who is in 4th grade- heading into 5th- has found it invaluable. Both of these dictonaries are the BEST out there. I highly recommend the MacMillan First Dictionary & MacMillan Dictionary for Students based on my experience as an educator and a mother.

I sampled several children's very first dictionary's at the bookstore. None really compared to this one. It not only teaches children the meaning of words, where they come from and how they can be confused by same sounds, it also teaches about dates, money, measurment and has colorful maps. The only thing I would add to this dictonary is an alphabet column on the edge of the pages highlighted with the letter of each section. Otherwise it's the best one out there for a very first childs dictionary.
