Summary

Now updated with new contemporary art at selected entries, this delightful book introduces preschoolers and beginning readers to the idea of alphabetical order and helps prepare them for higher-level dictionaries. Colorful artwork by the well-known children's illustrator Maggie Swanson brings words to life. Chosen by the editors of the American Heritage dictionaries in collaboration with educational consultants, each of the 900 entry words is age-appropriate.

Author Biography

The Editors of the American Heritage Dictionaries and of other reference titles published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt are trained lexicographers with a varied array of interests and expertise. Most of the editors hold graduate degrees and have studied at least one foreign language. Several have degrees in linguistics or in the history of the English language. Others have degrees in science or sometimes other disciplines. All the editors familiarize themselves with the vocabulary in specific subject areas, collect materials on new developments and usage, and work in association with consultants to ensure that the content of our publications is as accurate and as up-to-date as possible.
