The Oxford First Illustrated Dictionary, beautifully illustrated by
well-known picture book artist Emma Chichester Clark, is the
perfect first building block for 5-7 year-olds to engage with words
and language. Over 2000 entries give clear meanings and
definitions, parts of speech, word forms, word families, synonyms
and opposites to build vocabulary and first literacy skills. Not
just a dictionary, this unique book brings to life the world of
fairy tales, nursery rhymes, and picture books that children love.
Winnie the Pooh and Georgie Porgie appear alongside Aladdin and
Cinderella in the innovative example sentences. Rhyming words,
little words hiding in big words, and riddles provide plenty of
opportunities for fun word play, along with amusing word jokes and
child-friendly word origins. The entry for 'crocodile' tells the
child that the word comes from a Greek word meaning 'lizard' and
ends with the joke: 'What's a crocodile's favourite game? Snap.'
This wealth of information and fun with words is presented in a
contemporary, easy-to-use, engaging layout, creating the most
accessible and affordable dictionary and gift-book combination, the
perfect buy for Christmas and holidays as well as for everyday use.
