Macmillan Dictionary for Children Revised For The 21st Century Simon & Schuster

⁦The Macmillan Dictionary for Children has been the top seller in the children's reference field for years. Now, a newly revised, redesigned, and updated edition will make this solid reference book more popular than ever. The Macmillan Dictionary has been prized by readers for its clear, conversational entries, easy-to-read layout, and low price. Our revised edition preserves the natural tone of the text while updating entries and adding up-to-the-minute new terms, including current slang and idioms. New interior and cover design gives the dictionary a fresh, modem look, devoting more space to full-color illustrations and photos, and to special features like the "Word History" boxes that explain etymologies and the "Language Note" boxes that advise readers on correct usage. New features include the "Expanded Entries," which provide more information about particular words and concepts. For example, the Expanded Entry for "million" describes other large numbers, and explains prefixes like "mega" (million), "giga" (billion), and even "yotta" (septillion). Comprehensive, kid-friendly, and up-to-date, the Macmillan Dictionary is a must for any reference collection.
