Fabulous dictionary for any age learning French but will appeal to school pupils too ! November 19, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
We were given this dictionary at an Open Day at Harper Collins. And thank goodness we were. Its an excellent dictionary with colourful text. It has great examples of how to use each word. The central section includes bits about verbs, days of the week etc. so its more than just a dictionary. It also links to some things on the internet.

I have a copy of a previous edition of this 'easy learning' dictionary and a friend has the penultimate one to this latest copy. As such, I feel well-versed to comment... This new release is excellent. My wife and I, both in our 50's, are learning the language and we find this dictionary more than just a resource for looking up the meaning of words. It is a big help to us with our verb tables, especially the tenses and gives good grammatical breakdowns on many aspects of the language. Perhaps if there was more help with pronounciations, it could claim to be a language course in one book. But that aside, it is very, very, good value and we both love referring to it at every opportunity. Definitely five stars from us!
