The 'Kingfisher First Dictionary' is the ideal introductory dictionary for young children.
1500 entry words are clearly defined, and each word is used in a sample sentence to reinforce understanding of its usage. Over 1000 colour photographs and illustrations enhance definitions. Coloured letter sidebars allow children to move quickly through the book to find the page they want. The dictionary includes a variety of resources, which makes it enjoyable to explore and help make learning fun. 'Wordplay' boxes suggest word games and activities that help children develop stronger language skills. Themed picture pages explore one topic in depth and broaden the young reader's vocabulary. Spelling tips are placed in highlighted boxes and alert children to words that sound the same but are spelled differently. Key word lists provide information about grammar, days, months, numbers, money and measurement.
