Review
"[This book] offers far more challenge and motivating activities than most dictionaries, basic or otherwise, while maintaining an uncluttered, appealing visual impression to the reader. Its exercises offer a chance for critical thinking and active learning, not just passive, rote memorization."

"This dictionary goes beyond other picture dictionaries with only attractive artwork. This one directly contributes to the learners' overall development in the use of the vocabulary in context through short and informative readings and conversations. Congratulations!"

Best picture dictionary
By Kimberly DeWit
I hear that this book is no longer in print, which is a real shame, as it is one of the best picture dictionaries for adults out there. I think they should continue to produce it. ALL my adult language learners have LOVED it and I see them use it in class and talk about using it out of class. The illustrations are just, accurate, and also made for adults instead of kids so for those still in Level's 1 or beginning English levels it just can't be beat.

Good Dictionary
By Aladdin
It is very good book, I bought it to teach the women that I love how to speak English, she loves it and found it very useful.

Like what they say"Picture worth thousand words". Many English as second language speakers found it useful. One day at the adult English school the teacher brought that book and she said that it cost about 35$ at stores, the students loves it and I was able to find it for a lot less on amazon.

The pictures are very vivid and beautiful, it looks like real... it gives you the feeling that you can touch the items in the picture if you extend you hands and arm to them.
