Many children think and spell the way the dictionary is set up. The most favorable quality about this type of reference book is that some children try to look up words as they sound, not as they are spelled. The size and vertical text style was certainly manageable for my fifth grade students, in fact several of them commented on how much they liked the way the book was set up...I would recommend this dictionary for kids in grade 3 and up. Third graders want everything to be spelled correctly but often are just moving from the 'sound it out' stage. This dictionary lets them sound it out while discovering the correct spelling of the word... The best quality of this book is that kids can look up words by the sounds they hear. The kids thought it was 'cool' that the book was printed 'sideways'. It made it easy for them to flip through to find the starting letter of their word."
