Ideal word-power boost for growing students

This is a really handy pick for students who are starting to write more confidently and want everything in one place. Having the dictionary and thesaurus on the same page makes it feel much less intimidating, and a lot more useful when homework gets serious. It is the kind of school reference book that quietly becomes essential once you start caring about finding the right word, not just any word.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

The Oxford School Dictionary and Thesaurus combines a comprehensive dictionary at the top of the page with a companion thesaurus at the bottom for the upper primary student moving into secondary school. The dictionary contains clear, simple definitions, up-to-date example sentences, and support on spelling, grammar and punctuation. The thesaurus provides thousands of up-to-date synonyms, arranged by the meaning that is closest to that of the headword, instead of alphabetically, to enable users to select the most accurate alternative. Having the dictionary and thesaurus entries on the same page makes it a very easy-to-use one-volume reference tool. It is powered by the Oxford Children's Corpus, a unique electronic database of millions of words of writing for children. Plus, for free downloadable word games, puzzles, and activities, go online to the www.oxforddictionaries.com/schools website.
