Dictionaries

["Jeannine Towler (JJ)" <jjtowler@PEN.K12.VA.US>]

The very best dictionary I have seen is the Oxford English
Dictionary published by Dorling Kindersley Family Learning.
It has all of DK's fabulous color photographs and diagrams.
Oxford went to DK and asked them to publish thier dictionary
because DK has the most extensive photographic library in
the world.  It also has maps and flags which are quite
up-to-date as the dictionary only came out in October of 98.
It costs $50 at most bookstores but can be purchased from a
private DK distributor for $39.95, NO SHIPPING CHARGES and
delivery via UPS within 2 weeks.  Also, if you order in
quantities, such as for classrooms, you can get an even better
deal than that.  Check with your local DK distributor or email
me privately for more information.

I have one of these dictionaries in my library and students
come in with passes to read it because it is so beautiful and
interesting.  Several teachers have also purchsed them for
their classrooms where it serves as a one-volume encyclopedia!
