Scholastic Children's Dictionary
Grades 3-6, Hardcover, 656 pages
저희 딸은 지금 2학년이고 이사전은 1학년때부터 사용했습니다.
현재 학교에서 수업하면서 사용하는건 아주 간단하고 내용도 짧고...
부족한 부분이 많터라구요.
서점에 나가서 여러개 속을 뒤져봣는데..전 만족합니다..ㅎㅎ
혹시 이 사전을 말슴하시는건지...
읽어보시라고 올라온 리뷰 몇개 퍼왓어요..^^
1. The best thing that ever happened

This is really a whole lot of value for your buck because it has a whole resvior of words that are simple and complex so no matter what you are looking for you find it in this dictornary. Since I picked up a copy for my sister her spelling has improved a whole grade level and the explantions are very comprehensive. The colourful pictrues in this book help as a very good visual supplement to the explantations. Over all a great book.
2. Scholastic childrens dictionary
Reviewer: Franklin MacGuilicutty from Drunkin , Scotland
I personnally loved the way the everything was spelt so purfectly.
I would also like to point out the wonderful job the author did by alphabetically catagorizing each word and how he/she made so many chapters in the book making it easy to pick up and put down without losing your place.

GREAT reference item for a kiddo in 3rd to 5th grade!! Very informative; great illustrations and explanations. Even includes brief info about the states, presidents, a world atlas and flags info! I HIGHLY recommend this book!
Reviewer: jswatek from Wyckoff, NJ United States
This dictionary WAS good up until my child was in 1st grade. Ever since then, we are unable to find words in this dictionary!! It is a very frustrating experience for a child to actually use the book and then find this book does not have the words they need!! Only use this book for the early reader.
Reviewer: A customer
What I love most about this dictionary is that it has a lot of words, and adequate definitions for them -- but the definitions are not complicated themselves. Most of the words the kids need to look up are in there, and they don't get confused on the definitions, either.
My kids use this one all the time -- we've bought 5 copies to date, and since I have 6 children, we will undoubtedly get more as time goes on.
My friend, who is the head teacher of a K-12 school, has several copies of this dictionary in each classroom, and prefers it to any other simple dictionary.
This is really an excellent choice for children. --.
Reviewer: Kurt from Downers Grove, Illinois, USA
This large and handsome dictionary is designed for children aged 8 to 12. Along with the definitions are a number of excellent, highly colored pictures. The appendices of the book include the Braille alphabet, the American sign language, a map of the world, a list of flags and facts of the countries of the world, a map of the United States, a list of facts about the fifty American states, and a list of the Presidents of the United States. There is a lot of information in this book.
We bought this book for our children sight unseen for Christmas, 1999. During the following year, if I had reviewed this book, I would have given it five stars. However, since then things have changed. My daughter is now 9, and is in the fourth grade. When in the course of her homework, we have twice found the need to look up words that turned out to not be in this book, the two words are "phylum" and "covey."
I am rather disappointed that this dictionary is not sufficient for a 9 year-old's purposes, but I do not want to make too much of that. Overall this is a very good book, and a worthwhile addition to your library. --.
# good for 3rd grader
When my third grade daughter started to have a daily word to look up as part of her homework, we quickly discovered that the various adult dictionaries we had at home were not suitable. The print was too small and the definitions often had other words she did not know. We also had a "children's dictionary", but it did not have any of the words that she was assigned.
Since she uses the Scholastic Children's Dictionary in her classroom, I suspected that any words she brought home would be in it, since I assume that the teacher checks that dictionary before assigning them. So the fact the ten words I checked were in this dictionary, but not in some other children's dictionaries in the stores, does not necessarily mean that this one is more complete.
But I do like the layout and typefaces used. My daughter, who is slightly dyslexic, can find words reasonably easily. One flaw is that it lacks a page to indicate how far down the edge to look for the "thumb index tab" markings for a given letter. The book suggests looking for the "ninth red tab" for the letter "l", but I don't find that a practical way to find a section. A useful addition would be cutouts on the edge for these letters (seen on some adult dictionaries) even though that would certainly increase the price.
The sample sentences for each word help give an idea of word usage. And warnings about homonyms are also helpful. The definitions are simple enough for an 8 year old which is perfect for our current needs, but I'll want to buy a more advanced dictionary for my daughter in a couple of years.
