Customer Reviews

Very pleased!! Great price too!!

Since I have become legally blind books that are in "large print" have become an integral part of my life in how I live and communicate with others. Not to mention there are always a few words that I forget how to spell every now and then!!! This is a great dictionary for anyone even those who have good vision!! Thanks Webster!!

Five Stars for Webster Dictionary

After looking at summaries of "children's" dictionaries on the web, I realized that buying one of them for my 10-year old grandnephew, a very bright little boy, wasn't going to get him the tool he needs. Those dictionaries seem to be for little kids, and he's beyond that description. What I needed was a book he could use for reference, but since his home environment isn't one where seeking information is the first option, I wanted it to be an easy thing, a casual thing for him to be able to look up a word. He's being raised in a loving home, but there are no reference books and he doesn't have access to a library or the internet. When I came across the large-print dictionary and saw that it is meant to provide easy reference, I had a feeling that having the book might be one solution to this child's need for information. As it happens, it's exactly what he needed, and he happily looks up words he comes across for which he knows no definition. This version of a Merriam-Webster dictionary satisfies many needs, and I was happy to discover that it put another resource in the hands of one very smart little boy as he learns more about the world in which he lives.

this book is great because my old tired eyes can't see the way they use to and this book has LARGE print, so I don't need to squint, or use a magify glass or glasses. I should have done this a long time ago.

Webster's Large Print Dictionary Review

My 9yr old son was having difficult finding his vocabulary words in the "traditional" print size dictionary. Originally, I thought it was his sight, but it wasn't. After purchasing Webster's New Explorer Large Print Dictionary, our entire family uses it now. It is very "user friendly." It's a keeper and you will love it!
