"Both my 8 year old daughter and I are very impressed by this dictionary! As soon as we received it we set it a challenge... could it contain all of my daughter's weekly spellings for the week? Would it be able to help her place these spellings into sentences? It's a resounding yes! The dictionary is very well laid out, perfect for any key stage two child." - Toppsta Reviewer"Lovely illustrations to help with greater understanding we think this dictionary is 5 star and would highly recommend." - Toppsta Reviewer
