Merriam-Webster’s Elementary Dictionary

I love the book. I used it to teach my daughter how to use a dictionary and now when she does not know the meaning of word she can go and find it in the book. I know she can use online dictation but I believe this way teachers her more words.

Purchased this along with another dictionary for an older child, and this Elementary Version beat the other hands down - in the way its laid out, quality of the paper and print. The book is heavier than most, because of the quality of the paper - but its not a 3 or 4 inch book. Its for kids, so I dont expect every word is included. It should get her by for quite a few years. Giving it away as a gift.

Remember when you asked for help looking up a word and your parent said, Go look it up in the dictionary! ? This is a good tool to have at home especially for 2nd + as they need to learn how to use a dictionary... per state standards. Came promptly and was new.

i both this for my kids it help her

This dictionary is very comprehensive, easy to navigate and very sturdy. Many of the pages have illustrations which help kids to visualize the meaning of the word as well. I would definitely recommend it.

I bought this for my 8 year old, so he can learn the meanings of new words. He really loves the book alot. It is easy to use, and we have even come up with a find the word game so he can familiarize himself with it better. I recommend this book to any elementary student. It is a cute dictionary, but it is also quite easy to use, too.

My daughter asks 100 questions a day. I am so glad that now when she asks me what something means, I just point to the dictionary and tell her to look it up! Initially she wasnt too fond of this! Now that its been a few months, she LOVES her dictionary!!!

I bought this for my nine year old and its the best decision I made, the dictionary is perfect its not small like the other dictionaries and the pictures are an added benefit. The errors previously mentioned have been corrected because I dont see them in this copy and the word compass is spelled correctly in my copy. I would recommend it for anyone searching for a good kids dictionary.

This dictionary was designed with children in mind. My nine-year-old has an easy time using it for homework assignments. It has some pictures and detailed instructions on how to use the dictionary. It has so many features including a guide for writers, Greek and Latin roots in English, and a map of the United States and the world among other features. I recommended for parents as their childs first dictionary.

This version was printed July 2021. I have looked for the misspellings and missing pages. Those have been corrected. It’s a beautiful children’s dictionary. There is at least one picture on every page.
