Más información sobre el libro
What would you do if your teacher asked you to stop using "nice" so often? With the Scholastic Children's Thesaurus, you could quickly find "nice" nestled between "new" and "noise," revealing alternatives like "pleasant," "agreeable," "good-natured," "delightful," and "fantastic" (defined as "extremely nice or good!"). A color bar nearby cautions that "nice" is a vague term and encourages the use of stronger, more specific words. While you might roll your eyes at this advice, you'll ultimately become a more effective writer! John K. Bollard's thesaurus, illustrated by Mike Reed, features over 500 main "headwords" and 2,500 synonyms. If you can't locate a word like "energetic," the back index guides you to "Energetic—See Lively," leading to synonyms such as "active," "energetic," and "vigorous." Each synonym is accompanied by a definition and sample sentences. This excellent thesaurus, when used alongside the Scholastic Children's Dictionary, empowers young writers to make informed word choices, enhancing their understanding of language and boosting their writing skills. (Ages 9 to 13)
