Fun thing to do with Grandma
My 9 year old grandson and I love this little book. It’s good for all ages and is really a learning tool. For example, he knows the word for something but has learned that there are other words that mean the same and it’s fun to use that different word. That’s just one section of the book.

Created enthusiasm around words for my nine year old.
My nine year old really likes this book. I enjoyed the enthusiasm for learning and comparing words this book provided, so for that, I give it four stars. We noticed a duplication with throne in the homonyms section. I was disappointed to receive a copy with a two inch section torn off on the back cover and scuff wear along the top and bottom edges when I did buy a new copy. Amazon was very responsive and replaced the book the next day.

Include what it says in the description
Note: the item description clearly said that is a POCKET dictionary, with 12,000 synonyms, 10,000 antonyms, and 2,000 homonyms. So that being said… this book is a helpful tool for kids at school. The 1st part of the book is synonyms and antonyms. The antonyms are in italic font after the list of synonyms. The 2nd part is the homonyms from page 208 -237. From pages 238-240 include helpful information about the parts of speech.

My German, ESL, student loves this…. I bought another one when one of his friends wanted one also!
Geared for grades 3-7, The Scholastic Dictionary of Synonyms, Antonyms, and Homonyms has a print-size suitable for ALL ages, even ME!This book is a portable, and, inexpensive. It’s not a, standard, dictionary; it’s for people that don’t know the difference between a Beatle and a beetle. With more than 12,000 synonyms and 10,000 antonyms, this is great reference for young writers. For kids who don’t know whether to use “principle” or “principal”; “Stationary” or “Stationery”; Effect/Affect, etcetera. This handy guide also contains 2,000 homonyms. I’m grateful that this great book relieves me of words that grated MY mind.

My granddaughter (8 yo) found this book GREAT!!! She was tired of using the same words for describing things – “…boring, grandad! I need new words!” Now she is right. She guards her books like a kitten guards its favourite toy!!!Simplistic to use and understand, with examples.Highly recommended!!!

This book is easy and very useful if you suddenly are stuck with writing. If you are repeating the same word all over your text and your brain cant summon any other words, this book is just what you need.I recommend it to everyone who wants to expand their vocabulary in an easy way.
