The A-Z tab index on each page helps with alphabet skills and aim to make the dictionary easy-to-use. Guidewords are also given on every page. Bright, colourful illustrations and photgraphs support language learning and make the dicitonary lively and fun. Researched and developed in consultation with Literacy and Numeracy Consultatns, teachers, parents and children.
