A user friendly resource for beginners.
This is the perfect thesaurus for junior Spanish students. It is a small thesaurus with a range of vocabulary appropriate for beginners. The layout is quite simple. It is arranged alphabetically with quite a large font and the key word is in bold with the synonyms and antonyms beside the lead word in non-bolded letters. The thesaurus is illustrated therefore the student can associate some of vocabulary with the illustration. This book will help beginners to expand their vocabulary in Spanish and most of all understand the meaning of words at and beyond their level. This thesaurus would be helpful to beginners at any age not only to juniors. ... Read more

Roget's Children's Thesaurus
Very easy to use and the letters are a good size (not too small).

Great for first grade
This might not be a thesaurus for older primary students; but, it is a wonderful resource for first graders. Very easy to use and great presentation for children who are new to using a thesaurus. I use this thesaurus in my classroom and my students love it!

Not a Useful Reference Tool
This Thesaurus, although colorful and easy to read has far too few entries to be a useful reference tool for 3rd, 4th, 5th graders.Literally none of the words on my 4th grade daughter's spelling list (for which she needed tofind synonyms) were in the book. ... Read more

Wonderful book for toddlers.
Bought this book for a two year old and he loved looking through it.Now his little brother, who is now almost two, points to the beautiful pictures and wants me to name them.True it is missing a few words but it is a delightful introduction to many new images. Typical DK high quality.

Pretty, but too basic...
I was looking for a dictionary for my first grade classroom - something appealing and complete, but focused on children age 6-7.I love most DK books, and while this one is visually appealing, it was missing a lot of basic words.For example, "turtle" is no where to be found.Perhaps by adding the thesaurus they cut out some of the other basics.I ended up selecting another DK dictionary, the DK Children's Illustrated Dictionary instead.The American Heritage First Dictionary is also excellent - Houghton Mifflin ISBN0618280073.

Easy read for beginner reads lots of pictures too
I bought this book for a 5 year old.I wanted to teach my 5 year old how to look up words.This is the best children's dictionary I have ever read. Now I purchsed 2 others but this is the easiest book for any child to use and the most fun.I love the photos and the simplicity. ... Read more

Finding the right (appropriate/proper/correct) word can be so demanding(difficult/tough/hard), sometimes. But a good thesaurus can help find the wordthat expresses just what a writer or speaker wants to say, clearly and exactly.The Read more

Not a quality dictionary
A picture dictionary can be a great tool for language-learners, giving access to details that words alone can't get at as quickly or elegantly.Oxford's illustrated Italian-English dictionary is an example of some of the best work this type of volume can do.The pictures label specific parts of machines and scenes in a depth that's really useful.On the other hand, the Polish-English volume clearly falls short of the mark.Its first and greatest sin is that it often gives the plural rather than the nominative singular form of Polish nouns, so it's often impossible to determine the gender of the noun.Second, it's clearly a generic volume made to be recycled into many languages at minimal cost.Third, the pictures are nowhere near as detailed as those in the Italian-English volume (which isn't made from the 'generic' mold).The pictures look like they come out of the "See Dick Run" school--this volume just isn't up to snuff for someone seriously interested in studying Polish.Finally, many of the "helpful" phrases associated with various vocabulary topics are given only in English.
