This truly is a pocket dictionary. The small size and soft durable cover makes it easy to carry with you. The font is easy on the eyes and quite readable considering how many definitions are packed into one page. It has, however, let me down quite a few times. I generally need a dictionary to help with difficult or uncommon words and this dictionary tends to leave a lot of those out. I don't really need to carry around the definitions of cat, dog, table, coffee cup, bowling alley, etc. I need definitions to words like affiance and velleity, the last two of the long list of words I looked up that were not in this dictionary. If you have a pretty good grasp of Basic English and are looking for a pocket dictionary of difficult words, this isn't it.
I often use my dictionary and wanted a small one to take along when I travel. This one sounded about right. However, on my last trip I found that the definitions are limited and not necessarily what I'm looking for. For the size and the price, it is satisfactory, but it doesn't compare with a full-sized dictionary.
This is a trusty little volume to have on hand. It is small yet jam-packed. Some reviews of comparable products are filled with unlikely scare-stories of out of order entries and strange mistakes. I would not pay attention to them. What sold me on this dictionary was the vinyl cover: it holds up if you are taking it on a trip or hauling it around in a purse or a backpack.
I carry this in my purse everywhere I go (my daughter has a habit of asking me what a word means - so now, instead of just "telling" her - I have her look it up :-)She's not too happy about it - But I am :-)
Super dictionary for my middle schooler's backpack. Yes, it is a pocket dictionary so obviously every single word is not present. However, it is a convenient size and I LOVE the plastic cover. This is one dictionary that will actually survive the school year and beyond!
Disappointed in the order. It says under discription publication date is 2016, but when the book arrived it says 2000 publication date. I was specifically looking for one with the publication date of 2015-2016.
This was just what I wanted; it has a wide range of vocabulary and easily fits into a purse or backpack. Love it!!!
This is a great little dictionary to have in a desk drawer or throw in a brief case. Obviously not going to have every word in the English language based on its size but good for a quick reference.
