Description of this Book
Using the Oxford Concise School Dictionary on the top part of the page and the corresponding Oxford Concise School Thesaurus entries on the bottom, this combined Oxford School Dictionary & Thesaurus provides a one-stop shop for upper primary/lower secondary school users. The headwords are in colour and the design is clear and accessible. The dictionary provides comprehensive coverage appropriate for the Y7 user, along with word origins, pronunciation guides, idiomatic phrases and idioms, labels and up-to-date example sentences. The thesaurus provides over 100,000 up-to-date synonyms, with those with meaning closest to that of the headword placed first to enable users to select the most accurate alternative.

Awards & Reviews
| NZ Review |
Very nicely presented dictionary with thesaurus. Top half of pages are the dictionary, whilst the bottom half contains related thesaurus. Clean and easy to read print. Very useful for my 10 year old. 5 Star Amazon Reviewer This is a clear well set out book for children from about Y6 upwards and not too expensive. Will be needed for those children in Y5 who are hoping to sit the 11+ tests to improve their vocabulary. 5 Star Amazon Reviewer |
