Introduction : 

The Dorling Kindersley Children’s Illustrated

Dictionary is specifically aimed at children of

seven years and up, an age when children are

becoming increasingly independent readers

and writers and when a dictionary can be

a valuable companion.

Words and pictures Unlike many other dictionaries, The Children’s Illustrated Dictionary is not just about words—it also contains pictures.

Children today are used to information being presented in

a visual form through television, movies, and computers, and

are skilled readers of images. As a result, they require books

to be increasingly visually sophisticated.

The colorful photographs and illustrations in this

dictionary are fresh, exciting, and highly relevant to

children’s interests and concerns. These images will help

to draw young readers into the book; they also work with

the text to give clear and concise definitions.
