5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic resource for all children, 9 Oct 2000
This review is from: The Oxford Children's Dictionary (Hardcover)
This dictionary was recommended by my mother - a primary teacher over over 20 years experience as the best infant dictionary around. Having purchased it - I can only agree. Fully supports the National Curiculum.

4.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for KS2, 31 Jul 2008
By Mrs. C. Smith "msmith132" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
My son needed something more than his picture dictionary, but not so large he lost interest in looking a word up - and this is perfect.

The only down side is the size (A5) and being a hardback, it is a little heavy for carrying around on a daily basis.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good dictionary, 15 Mar 2009
By Vovvarna (Leicester, England) - See all my reviews
Oxford Children's Dictionary This is an excellent dictionary with colour coding for the letters of the alphabet at the top of the pages. I recommend it to my pupils' parents. I had to buy a new copy as our puppies chewed my previous one!:-)
